1971 A Mathematical Method for Analyzing the Growth of a Scientific Discipline
abstract
The spread of ideas within a scientific community and the spread of infectious disease are both special cases of a general communication process.Thus a general theory of epidemics can explain the growth of symbolic logic from 1847 to 1962.An epidemic model predicts the rise and fall of particular research areas within symbolic logic.A Markov chain model of individual movement between research areas indicates that once an individual leaves an area he is not expected to return.
