Journal Description

SCIENCE PROGRESS has for over 100 years been a highly regarded review publication in science, technology and medicine. Its objective for the past century has been to excite the readers' interest in areas with which they may not be fully familiar but which could facilitate their interest, or even activity, in a cognate field.

Topics covered in SCIENCE PROGRESS encompass all current world issues, such as the principles and possibilities of solar energy, the impact of global warming, and the use of algae to produce biodiesel fuel. Diagnostic methods, and online structural databases have been extensively analysed.

Medically, a cure for dementia has been discussed as has insulin resistance, RNA transfer, microbial physiology, and even the true cause of the death of Napoleon. The eradication of malaria, organ transplantation and stem cell research have all featured in recent issues.

SCIENCE PROGRESS showed how lactose intolerance fits exactly the illness that Charles Darwin suffered from for over 40 years, and yet was never diagnosed.

Other topics covered include poisonous plants, nanoparticles, ionic liquids, free radicals, protein evolution, renewable energy resources, nuclear energy, and molecular magnetism.

SCIENCE PROGRESS commissions world experts to contribute articles on the most interesting, important and meaningful topics and ensures that they are presented for the most effective use of those in both academia and industry.

COMMENTARIES are shorter articles focusing on developments in fields that have undergone major conceptual change in the last 2 to 3 years, or on even a shorter timescale.

REVIEWS of books of current scientific interest are included.

Excerpts from articles that were published in SCIENCE PROGRESS 100 years ago are regular features. They provide a fascinating insight into how the world of science has evolved since SCIENCE PROGRESS first appeared in print.

Truly, SCIENCE PROGRESS publishes an eclectic mix of articles that no library can afford to be without.
