By splitting up the subject matter into smaller units， one man could continue to handle the information and use it as the basis for further research. But specialisation was only one of a series of related developments in science affecting the process of munication. Another was the growing professionalisation of scientific activity. No clearcut distinction can be drawn between professionals and amateurs in science: exceptions can be found to any rule. Nevertheless, the word “ amateur” does carry a connotation that the person concerned is not fully integrated into the scientific munity and, in particular, may not fully share its values. The growth of specialisation in the nieenth century, with its consequent requirement of a longer, more plex training, implied greater problems for amateur participation in science. The trend was naturally most obvious in those areas of science based especially on a mathematical or laboratory training, and can be illustrated in terms of the development of geology in the United Kingdom. A parison of British geological publications over the last century and a half reveals not simply an increasing emphasis on the primacy of research, but also a changing definition of what constitutes an acceptable research paper. Thus, in the nieenth century, local geological studies represented worthwhile research in their own right。s no question that the big are getting bigger and more powerful.
