One of the world's most important historical records will be made available online for the first time today. All the Royal Society's journals are free for two months and include stone-cold scientific classics going back to 1665 and the foundations of modern inquiry.
 
Something told me it would've been posted when I started, but I went ahead anyway. :biggrin:
 
Some must read...
