Studies in History and Philosophy of Science
Studies in History and Philosophy of Science is a series of three peer-reviewed academic journals published by Elsevier. It was established in 1970 as a single journal, and was split into two sections–Studies in History and Philosophy of Science Part A and Studies in History and Philosophy of Science Part B: Studies in History and Philosophy of Modern Physics–in 1995. In 1998, a third section, Studies in History and Philosophy of Science Part C: Studies in History and Philosophy of Biological and Biomedical Sciences, was created.{{cite web | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nlmcatalog/1250602 | title=Studies in History and Philosophy of Science | accessdate=21 July 2016}}{{cite web | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nlmcatalog/9810965 | title=Studies in History and Philosophy of Biological and Biomedical Sciences | accessdate=21 July 2016}} In January 2021, all three sections were merged back into Part A, Studies in History and Philosophy of Science.{{Cite web |title=Studies in History and Philosophy of Science News |url=https://www.journals.elsevier.com/studies-in-history-and-philosophy-of-science-part-c-studies-in-history-and-philosophy-of-biological-and-biomedical-sciences/news/studies-in-history-and-philosophy-of-science-news |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200924091006/https://www.journals.elsevier.com/studies-in-history-and-philosophy-of-science-part-c-studies-in-history-and-philosophy-of-biological-and-biomedical-sciences/news/studies-in-history-and-philosophy-of-science-news |archive-date=24 September 2020 |access-date=23 January 2022 |website=Elsevier}}
