Citation and co-citation of research articles can be used to produce bibliometric maps of the intellectual, but not necessarily the social, influences within scientific specialties. In the common situation where papers have multiple authors, author order is not a reliable guide to influence. By examining patterns of coauthorship, however, we are able to identify the significant figures within two sample specialties, and to show that the specialties exhibit a differentiated internal social structure. We confirm this `outsider' picture of the specialties by reference to `insider' viewpoints
