Abstract :
In the March issue of Electrical Engineering (pages 110–13) C. F. Dalziel presents an analysis to facilitate, for an individual or an institution, the selection of the necessary journals dealing with electrical engineering. This analysis is based on the number of references given to these journals in other technical periodicals. The writer takes the liberty to make two objections: against the scope, and against the method of analysis. He wishes to emphasize that his deductions should not be understood as a mere criticism, but as an attempt to clarify the problem and to show a way for another solution.
