“…Although a few early volumes of the JOMH in 1996 continued to focus on important historical individuals, including Weber (DiPadova, 1996;Dudley, 1996;Fry and Nigro, 1996), Barnard (Feldman, 1996a(Feldman, , 1996bMcmahon and Carr, 1997) and Randolph (Kovach, 1996), the years of 1996 and 1997 were characterized by a shift in the focus of the journal to a broader, multi-disciplinary focus, covering a wider range of diverse topics. For example, during this period, the JOMH saw a rise in the number of articles on topics such as public administration (Esquith, 1997;Griffith, 1997), philosophy (Gephart, 1996), business education (Cuff, 1996) and sociology (Feldman, 1996a).…”
