Proceedings of the Royal Society
The Proceedings of the Royal Society of London is a monthly scientific journal of the Royal Society of peer review . Many German natural scientists use this journal for publications from 1800 onwards, since comparable journals in Germany only appeared around 70 years later.
Initially it only contained summaries of papers published elsewhere ( English "abstracts" ), but from 1854 onwards it contained full publications (" proceedings "). Since the volume of the annual volumes had increased enormously, they were split into two series in 1905
- A (mathematics, physics, engineering)
- B (biology).
Chemical and pharmaceutical treatises were published in the " Journal of the Chemical Society of London" from 1849 .
