ABOUT THE JOURNAL
EASTM (formerly Chinese Science) is published by the International
Society for the History of East Asian Science, Technology, and
Medicine (ISHEASTM). Numbers 1-10 (1975-92) were published irregularly
under the editorship of Nathan Sivin (University of Pennsylvania).
Numbers 11-15 (1993-98) were issued annually at the University of
California, Los Angeles, by Benjamin A. Elman. Beginning with Number
16 (1999), the name of the journal changed to East Asian Science,
Technology, and Medicine and is published by Hans Ulrich Vogel at the
University of Tübingen, Germany. From 2003 to 2008 two issues per
annum have been the norm. However, from 2009 to 2011 only one normal
issue per year will be published. In addition, special numbers may
appear from time to time so that this frequency increases. The
publication of this periodical is supported by a grant from the
Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG).
This journal includes studies on the science, technology, and medicine
of traditional and contemporary East Asia. Any study based on original
research using Chinese, Japanese, or Korean primary sources or
artifacts, that elucidates the relationships and interactions of
science, technology, and medicine with politics, society, economics,
philosophy, culture, religion, historiography, as well as their
disciplinary traditions, or throws light on the work of scientists,
technologists, and physicians in East Asia will gladly be considered.
