Can anyone suggest a book or article that addresses the history of
copyright in relation to scientific journals and the articles published in
them? E.g., in the history of scientific journals, has it always been the
case that authors have typically signed over copyright to a publisher?
Also, how historically have publishers of scientific journals and authors
understood ownership of the intellectual content of journal articles?

Big question, I realize!

Thanks
