Everett I. Mendelsohn, associate professor of the History of Science, is completing plans for a Journal of the History of Biology -- the first in its field.
The Harvard University Press has agreed to publish and initially finance the journal. Its first issue is expected next fall.
Mendelsohn said the magazine will come out twice a year in issues of about 150 pages. It will publish long and short articles on the history of embryology, physiology, genetics, evolution and all other fields related to biology except medicine.
Both the genesis of recent discoveries and the growth of long-established theories will be subjects for the journal, Mendelsohn said.
