Due to this matter, "Nature" has caused a polarized reputation within the British natural philosophy circle.
On one hand, "Nature" has never lacked high-level articles, especially in the field of electromagnetism, due to endorsements from academic authorities like Faraday, Ampere, Berzelius, and Arago, making it hard to find a journal more prestigious than "Nature" in Europe at present.
However, on the other hand, you can also find quite a number of peculiar and undeserving articles in "Nature".
Nonetheless, despite the uneven quality of "Nature", this controversy only exists within the scientific community.
To outsiders, they can only see one thing.
That is, in the past two years, almost all of the newly developed members of the Royal Society were elected only after first publishing papers in "Nature".
Therefore, it easily leads to the association that publishing a paper in "Nature" is equivalent to obtaining a ticket to the Royal Society.
