Fun with Web of Science

A new feature in Web of Science debuted recently. The new citation map feature allows first & second generation mapping of citations both backwards and forwards. The resulting map can be customized and edited. (An ActiveX Install was necessary on both computers where I tried this new feature.)

Here’s a first generation both direction example from 1999 written by emeritus professor, Brian Gebhardt. His article cites 37 different articles and has been cited 16 times so far.
