520    Communicating Research explores how changing technologies 
       affect academic research practices. The book begins with 
       the rise of electronic media and fundamental changes in 
       the dissemination of research. It then outlines the 
       problems and concerns of researchers, librarians, and 
       publishers: inadequacies of copyright laws, the rise of 
       interlibrary loan practices, and the unchecked broadcast 
       of working papers. These problems lead to a discussion of 
       research practices across scholarly disciplines and an 
       investigation of the biases and intentions of 
       practitioners. The book includes historical data and 
       observations on the current scene in order to make 
       predictions about the future. Communicating Research draws
       conclusions about the ways that differing norms, such as 
       the differences in the ways chemists and sociologists 
       conduct, write, and publish their research, affect 
       publication trends. The book also looks closely at the 
       efficiency of publication strategies and their 
       effectiveness in reaching the researchers' targeted 
       audiences. Meadows uses two avenues to explore the 
       communication of research findings. One is the medium used
       to convey the message; the other is the needs of the 
       research community. He offers a solid base of analysis for
       understanding researchers, their biases, their assumptions
       about the communication, and the publishers. It explains 
       variations in the reviewing processes for books and 
       journals. It tailors communication and publishing insights
       for researchers, and offers superior historical 
       information.
