Page "David Brewster" Paragraph 22

In 1819 Brewster undertook further editorial work by establishing, in conjunction with Robert Jameson ( 1774 – 1854 ), the Edinburgh Philosophical Journal, which took the place of the Edinburgh magazine.

The first ten volumes ( 1819 – 1824 ) were published under the joint editorship of Brewster and Jameson, the remaining four volumes ( 1825 – 1826 ) being edited by Jameson alone.

After parting company with Jameson, Brewster started the Edinburgh Journal of Science in 1824, 16 volumes of which appeared under his editorship during the years 1824 – 1832, with very many articles from his own pen.
