Abstract

S. Peter Gary has called our attention (“Review Papers: Proceedings vs. Journals,” Eos, March 3, 1987, p. 125) to the lesson of the noted philosopher of science, S.W.H. Cowley, to wit: “Proceedings are simply not accessible to the same degree as journals.” From this, Gary concludes that it would be much more desirable if space physics review articles were published in refereed journals rather than in conference proceedings. I should like to comment a bit on this, if I may.
