Like the title says

nope, sorry, I don`t

I think its a good magazine. Its really informative about scientific news. Really recommended

well, my parents do, and i look at it every once in a while, so i said yes.

i subscribed to New Scientist, i find it better generally and more informative. I said no

I had a subscription last year. Its a GREAT read for the casual scientist. Great descriptions and illustrations, and awesome special issues. Highly recommended.

I borrow and read them from the library.

 

;-)

 

Of course, I'm always 1 month.

 

Nice! I actually subscribe to it. ITs REALLY good! You all should just buy 1 copy and have a read through.

anyone borrow me some money? I could subscribe with some money

lol. Honestly, its amazing

Is every second page advertising? That seems to be par for the course at the moment.

 

I generally avoid magazines with America in the title. I don't really like to read the self congratulation that goes on in them. I prefer the UK magazines with the impartial reports of excellence in the UK.

well, no, it has about 15 topics that are covered in complete detail. Then some questions to be answered (similar to this forum) and some other neat stuff. Really good. There are ads, but not many

Oh, any topics that cover the undeniable superiority of the UK?

well, its worldwide science. They have new discoveries theories. Its worth a try!

I used to read it.

Does James Burke still do his routine in the back section?

atinymonkey have you got hang-ups over America? Nationalist do not write Scientific American, scientists write that that magazine, if if your thinking that only "American" scientific magazines contain advertisements on every other page, then you are seriously deluded. And by the way i am not a American, just civil.

I suspect impartial magazines reporting on excellence in the UK to be biannual at most, as the content would be few and far between.

 

Joking aside, I hope you were joking.

Well, I can't very well accede to a colonial upstart, now can I?

 

Hrumph.

 

Wolfson, I hate advertising generically, I'm not continent specific that one. I hope that one day I can open a magazine without finding 16 new products I need to make my life better, faster and minty fresh. I also object to subsidising the magazines revenue directly and indirectly through advertising fees.

Well, everyone hates ads, even me, Sigh youve just got to live with it

I used to subscibe to Discover and Popular Science but I found Scientific American and the articles have much more depth. This months article on quantum gravity was especially interesting.

hmmm I haven't got that one yet. Its on its way though

Scientific American is quite an excellent publication. Its smarter than Discover and some other magazines and a lot of the articles are pertinent to future technoligies. Science magazine is good too, but way harder to understand than Scientific American.

 

In SA I really liked the article a while back about new motion systems through plastics (or rubber?). It was the cover story.

yeah. Its a really good magazine. I started to subscribe to it only last year. I saw the magazine at school, and i really liked it.

Wolfson's humour detector is broken.

aommaster really likes that magazine.
