Information for contributors

One copy of a manuscript should be sent to the University of California, Office for History of Science and Technology, Editor, 543 Stephens Hall # 2350, Berkeley, CA 94720-2350, and a second copy to the appropriate Associate Editor.

Contributors for whom no Associate Editor appears to be appropriate should send both copies of their manuscripts to the Editor. The identifications of Associate Editors refer to their particular competencies; they do not define the scope of the journal, which is open to studies in all aspects of the history of the physical sciences and experimental biology since the 17th century.

Typescripts should be double spaced on 8 1/2 x 11 paper, with ample margins. Footnotes, tables, captions and displayed equations should be double spaced on separate sheets. Prospective contributors please see our online and revised style sheet as well as our pages on information for authors on disk preparation and formatting information.

CHANGE AS OF FALL 2002: UC Press now requires all articles to include brief abstracts as to their content. Please include a 150-200 word abstract along with your manuscript. Thank you.
