“One of the diseases of this age is the multiplicity of
books; they doth so overcharge the world that it is not
able to digest the abundance of idle matter that is
every day hatched and brought forth into the world. “
Barnaby Rich 1613 (cited after Price)
Author of 26 books
Barnaby Rich Effect:
“It„s always the other author(s) who publishes too
much and “pollutes“, “floods”, “eutroficates” the
literature, never me”
Braun and Zsindely 1985
