    • Other aspects of the contemporary ‘scientific’ press that cannot be dealt with here in detail (in toto a further 28% of Kronick’s survey) include ‘review’ and ‘abstract’ journals (into which categories the, are usually placed), collections or compilations of reprinted materials (such as the Collection acad’emique, referred to below in footnotes 27-28 and text), dissertations, almanacs, and so on (see Kronick, 78). Book reviews, summaries, digests, republications and announcements of scientific material originally presented in ‘substantive’ journals or learned society proceedings dominate these forms of publication (Kronick, chs. vii-xi). How much journals like the Journal des scavans or the Acta eruditorum provided a common or important outlet for so-called original publication is an open question. Compare, for example, Kronick’s categorization of the ‘review’ journal, with what Ornstein has said of the substantive content of the early issues of the Acta eruditorum (Ornstein (footnote 1), 204-206 and notes). Kronick later indicates that various types of review and general periodicals were used as outlets for original scientific publication (p. 255), but one suspects that these types of derivative publications were of ever less importance to eighteenth-century men of science
