Abstract: Interdisciplinary Science Reviews was established in 1976 by Dr Anthony Rowland Michaelis, a former Scientific Correspondent of the London Daily Telegraph, to further interdisciplinary approaches across the sciences, between science and society, and between the sciences and the humanities. Drawing on a long career in international science communication, he had the committed support of a large editorial board, including many close personal friends and colleagues. The subsequent development of the journal is recounted over its first five decades, under its first four Editors-in-Chief, and with a rotating cast of editorial board members, many of considerable distinction in their respective fields. With interdisciplinary discourse in the sciences still in its infancy when Interdisciplinary Science Reviews was founded, this account of the journal's intellectual trajectory also sheds light on the evolving history of the concept of interdisciplinarity itself over that period.
