Andrew Adams (2007) has written a powerful, relentless and devastating
critique of Kevin Taylor's (2007) "Copyright and research: an academic
publisher's perspective." Adams cites other archivangelists in support of
his position, but this lucid, timely, rigorous and compelling synthesis
is entirely his own. It will be seen and cited as a landmark in the
research community's delayed but inexorable transition to Open Access.
