Early Science and Medicine

期刊简介：Early Science and Medicine (ESM) is a peer-reviewed international journal dedicated to the history of science, medicine and technology from the earliest times through to the end of the eighteenth century. The need to treat in a single journal all aspects of scientific activity and thought to the eighteenth century is due to two factors: to the continued importance of ancient sources throughout the Middle Ages and the early modern period, and to the comparably low degree of specialization and the high degree of disciplinary interdependence characterizing the period before the professionalization of science.

【译文】早期科学和医学（ESM）是一本同行评审的国际期刊，致力于从最早的时代到18世纪末的科学、医学和技术的历史。将所有18世纪的科学活动和思想方面都包含在同一本期刊中的需求，归因于两个因素：在整个中世纪和早期现代时期，古代资料持续的重要性，以及在该时期科学专业化之前，相对较低的专业化和高度学科相互依赖的特点。
