The current peer review process is broken and unless changes are
made it will soon die. In Do We Still Need Peer Review?, author
Thomas H.P. Gould examines the evolution of peer review from the
earliest attempts by the Church to evaluate scholarly works to the
creation of academic peer review and finally to the current status
of the process. Gould argues that without an immediate effort by
scholars to institute reform, the future of peer review may cease
to exist. As new technology provides authors with a direct,
unsupervised route to publication, the peer review situation is
nearing a tipping point, beyond which the nature of academic
research will be profoundly altered. This book proposes that rather
than tossing out peer review altogether, the process can be saved
and made stronger, offering suggestions on how to do just that.
