1921年，奥利弗·洛奇为《哲学杂志》辩护，反对全国科学工作者联盟对他管理不善的指控。他们声称，它的编辑做的编辑工作很少，大部分是由出版商泰勒和弗朗西斯。洛奇向《自然》杂志的读者保证，该杂志确实咨询了编辑，并建议“对古老的器官采取保守的态度是明智的;过度组织的东西可能会失去生命。本文以《哲学杂志》的编辑安排为例，探讨洛奇的回应。它成立于1798年，保持着显著的不变，因此与其最接近的竞争对手《皇家学会会刊》和《物理学会会刊》相比，它显得过时了。我们认为，洛奇的管理ofPhilosophical杂志给了它的灵活性和独立性，需要维持的那种物理学，也开放的过时的指责，他相信。
In 1921 Oliver Lodge defendedPhilosophical Magazineagainst charges of mismanagement from the National Union of Scientific Workers. They alleged that its editors performed little editorial work, the bulk being done by the publishers, Taylor & Francis. Lodge reassuredNature'sreaders that the journal did consult its editors, and suggested ‘a conservative attitude towards old-established organs is wise; and that it is possible to over-organise things into lifelessness.’ The paper explores Lodge's response by considering the editorial arrangements atPhilosophical Magazine. Founded in 1798, it remained remarkably unchanged and so appeared old-fashioned when compared with its closest rivals,Proceedings of the Royal SocietyandProceedings of the Physical Society. We argue that for Lodge the management ofPhilosophical Magazinegave it the flexibility and independence required to sustain the kind of physics, also open to accusations of obsolescence, in which he believed.
