The National Science Board has published six statistical surveys of the health of American science in the Science Indicators series (lA, NSB, 1973, 1975, 1977, 1979, 1981, and 1983) see II, Flkana et al. (eds.), 1978. The science indicators movement is the most recent manifestation of a tradition of interest in the quantitative measurement of science for discussion of earlier contributions, see II, Thackray, 1978, and II, Merton, 1977, 24-59. See also II, Leupold et al., 1982.
