== Publication History == * '''1961''' – First published in London and New Haven by Yale University Press. * '''1962''' – Released as a Yale Paperbound edition. * '''1975''' – Enlarged edition published, adding new chapters and revised commentary. The book is notable for Price’s pioneering observation of the '''exponential growth of science''' and his prediction that such growth would eventually encounter natural limits. It remains a foundational text in the field of '''scientometrics'''.
