title: Electronic publishing of science: better late than never.
abstract: The time required for medical publication in the print literature has changed little in 200 years, whereas scientific discovery now proceeds at a dizzying pace. There is a growing disjunction between the efficiency of science and the inefficiency of scientific reporting. Electronic publication as proposed for PubMedCentral is a logical solution to this problem.
