The Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society, or
Phil. Trans., is a scientific journal published by the
Royal Society.
Begun in
1665, it is the oldest scientific journal printed in the
Anglosphere and the second oldest in the world, after the French
Journal des sçavans. It is still published, making it the world's longest running scientific journal. The use of the word "philosophical" in the title derives from the phrase "natural philosophy", which was the equivalent of what we would now generically call "
science" (and hence the highest degree in science is also called the
Doctor of Philosophy).
History
The first issue was published by
Henry Oldenburg in 1665, six years after the Royal Society had been founded. Over the centuries, many important scientific discoveries have been published in the
Philosophical Transactions. Famous contributing authors include Isaac Newton,
Michael Faraday and Charles Darwin. In 1672, the journal published Newton's first paper
New Theory about Light and Colours, which can be seen as the beginning of his scientific career.
Current publication
In
1887 the journal expanded to two separate publications, one serving the Physical Sciences:
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Physical, Mathematical and Engineering Sciences and the other focusing on the life sciences: Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences. Both journals now publish themed issues, and individual
research are published in the sister journals
Proceedings of the Royal Society.
