This is the third part of a comprehensive, quantitative study of biomedical book reviewing. The data base of the total project was built from statistics of 3,347 reviews of 2,067 biomedical books appearing in all 1970 issues of fifty-four reviewing journals. This part of the study explores the duplication patterns in book reviewing among these media. It is found that 35.17% (727 books) of the 2,067 titles were reviewed more than once in 1970, these titles accounting for 2,007 of the total of 3,347 reviews. For the most part, reviews of the most frequently reviewed titles appeared in such journals as British Medical Journal, Annals of Internal Medicine, Lancet, Journal of the American Medical Association, and New England Journal of Medicine. These five journals covered 93.53% of the 727 books reviewed more than once in 1970.
这是一项关于生物医学图书评论的全面定量研究的第三部分。整个项目的数据库是根据1970年所有54种评论期刊中出现的2067本生物医学图书的3347篇评论的统计数据建立的。该研究的这一部分探讨了这些媒体在图书评论方面的重复模式。研究发现,在2067种图书中,有35.17%(727种)在1970年被多次评论,这些图书占3347篇评论总数的2007篇。在大多数情况下,被评论次数最多的图书的评论出现在《英国医学杂志》《内科学年鉴》《柳叶刀》《美国医学会杂志》和《新英格兰医学杂志》等期刊上。这五种期刊涵盖了1970年被多次评论的727种图书中的93.53%。
