Soft cover. Etat : Good. Derek J. de Solla Price's influential study of the history, sociology, and quantitative development of modern science. This expanded 1986 edition incorporates the complete text of the original Little Science, Big Science, first published in 1963, together with nine later papers extending Price's investigations into scientific growth, citation patterns, research networks, "invisible colleges," differences between hard and soft sciences, and the development of high technology. Price was a pioneer of what became known as scientometrics?the quantitative study of science itself?and this remains one of the central works associated with the emergence of that field. Of particular interest to collectors and scholars of the history and philosophy of science, sociology of science, bibliometrics, information science, and scientific communication. Condition: Good. Original printed wrappers show noticeable rubbing and handling wear, including scuffing, edge and corner wear, and several prominent diagonal/vertical creases to the rear cover. Spine lettering remains clear. Interior pages shown are clean and generally well preserved. Please see photographs for condition details. Collector/Scholarly Appeal: An important expanded edition of Price's best-known work, combining his original landmark study with later essays that trace the development of his ideas about scientific growth and communication. Shipping/Returns: Carefully packed for shipment. Returns accepted in accordance with AbeBooks policies. SCI 3a. N° de réf. du vendeur ABE-1787079089515

Originally published in 1963, it has been cited over 800 times through 1986, making it Derek's most-cited work. It has long since become a Citation Classic, and Price's commentary on it has been reprinted in the new edition of LSBS . . . The reprinted version of LSBS, entitled Little Science, Big Science . . . and Beyond, includes not only the original, unabridged text from the 1963 edition but also nine of the papers Price wrote subsequent to its publication. These include four of his most highly cited works from the mid-1960s to 1970 as well as his last paper, 'Of sealing wax and string.' Reviewing the new edition of LSBS, ISI's Henry Small described it as not only 'highly useful,' but also said that 'Price's energy, enthusiasm and commitment are transmitted through every page of these essays' ' (Eugene Garfield, 'Current Comments', in Current Contents, No. 11, p. 3, March 16, 1987).
