If I want to see more than an abstract from PubMed, what is the

best, most cost effective way, to view the publication

---------------

Ashton, in addition to the answer that I posted, there is another

good way to obtain the full text of an article that you see

abstracted on Medline (PubMed).

Authors of scientific publications like to share their work with

others. The abstract sometimes contains the primary author's e-mail

address.

If you e-mail the primary author and request the full text article,

the author is usually more than happy to oblige. The author will

usually be able to send you the article by e-mail, and if not, the

author typically has reprints that they are happy to send to you.
