  Visualization of the Citation Impact Environments of Scientific Journals: An online mapping excercise
As a policy application, the mechanism of interdisciplinary developments among the sciences is elaborated for the case of nanotechnology journals.
In science studies this operationalization of the intellectual organization of knowledge in terms of texts (journals) as different from the social organization of the sciences in terms of institutions and people would enable us to explain the scientific enterprise as a result of these two interacting and potentially coevolving dimensions (Whitley, 1984; Leydesdorff, 1998).
The latter can be expected to vary among fields of science and perhaps to a lesser extent among journals within fields, but they all contain a large tail which is loglinear and a core set which is curvilinear.

 Science and the Artist's Book   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Science and the Artist's Book is an exhibition which explores links between scientific and artistic creativity through the book format.
The resulting artist's books, each inspired by the subject, theories or illustrations of the landmark works of science with which they are paired, offer a number of witty, imaginative, and even poignant insights into the creative side of scientific research.
The works are now housed in the Dibner Library of the History of Science and Technology, part of the Smithsonian Institution Libraries.

 The Journal of Communication and the field of communication studies: Mapping Scientific Communication Online
The alternative of a more finely-grained measure of impact like a local impact factor, presumes either the possibility of a robust classification of the journals (Pinski and Narin, 1976) or it has to be based on another unit of analysis, e.g., the individual paper.
The maps enable us to follow historical developments within fields of science, but the identification of these communication structures in terms of their disciplinary organization cannot be provided by these maps (Rip, 1997).
The overall density of the network is more than twice as high in the sciences when compared with the social sciences in terms of the average cell values.
