But why even reference the original article? Doesn't the revised/republished 
article supplant the former entirely, so just cite it? I've not seen this type 
of recursive citing before. Seems extraneous to me.

Subject: Re: [Framers] OT: Reference question

I've never seen an embedded reference in all my years in university. I would 
have thought that the second one would have just quoted the title of the first 
one - e.g.


Rodgers, T., Leahy, D., et al. (2007). "Rodgers T, Leahy D, Rowland M. 2005.
Physiologically based pharmacokinetic modeling 1: Predicting the tissue 
distribution of moderate-to-strong bases." J Pharm Sci 94(6): 1259-76.


and ditched the first location - IMHO, that's not part of the title of the 
second article.

Subject: [Framers] OT: Reference question

OK, I know this is off-topic but because this list is filled with seasoned 
veterans of technical writing, I know I can get my answer here. I am working on 
the references for a client document, and have to sort through the existing 
references that I was given and make sure it is accurate, current, etc., and I 
came across a couple of instances of a reference within a reference such as:



Rodgers, T., Leahy, D., et al. (2005). "Physiologically based pharmacokinetic 
modeling 1: predicting the tissue distribution of moderate-to-strong bases." J 
Pharm Sci 94(6): 1259-76.



Rodgers, T., Leahy, D., et al. (2007). "Rodgers T, Leahy D, Rowland M. 2005.
Physiologically based pharmacokinetic modeling 1: Predicting the tissue 
distribution of moderate-to-strong bases. J Pharm Sci 94:1259-1276." J Pharm 
Sci 96(11): 3151-3152.



You can see that the first reference is embedded/cited in the second reference. 
This was not the way that I was taught a gazillion years ago to cite an 
embedded reference. Basically, if the content of the embedded reference was 
standalone in a new reference, regardless of the source, then the new reference 
was all that was cited, for example:



Rodgers, T., Leahy, D., et al. (2007). Physiologically based pharmacokinetic 
modeling 1: Predicting the tissue distribution of moderate-to-strong bases.
J Pharm Sci 96(11): 3151-3152.



I looked at these papers and the content was standalone in the second reference 
and it cited the first reference for the content, but because the content was 
standalone in the second reference, I should cite only the second reference 
where appropriate. (God, does that even make sense. . . I am thinking of the 
Friends episode, "The One Where Everybody Finds Out," and they don't know that 
we know that they know and Joey loses his mind.)



I just need some advice from some seasoned writers about how to handle this.



Thanks!
