Coles, P.
(2011).
Academic journals remain unnecessary and unhealthy whilst open access archives such as arXiv continue to grow.

Peter Coles dissects what he believes to be the “parasitic” nature of journal subscriptions, arguing that open access e-print archives, such as physicist favourite arXiv, could be the future of academic publishing.
