Discover (1-year)

I got an excellent deal for Discover magazines through the ' daily lightning deals' section. You should check this out, you might catch something for a price you hardly imagined.

As someone with a casual interest in science, I find this magazine both accessible and interesting. It doesn't talk down to the reader, yet it is not overwhelming either. The articles are on a good mix of topics, from mental illness to NASA to genetic profiling. I would definitely recommend Discover to anyone who has checked out science news on a general news site like CNN.com. This magazine will amply supplement your science news consumption. A+

Yet another magazine with a blatant liberal bias. Every single article is written by a leftist, un-objective amateur.

Not suitable for bird cage lining.

my teenager daughter and i read them often. for her, she finds them a bit repetitive, and not too different from one edition to the next. for me, it is an easy reading for very busy people, and give me a chance to read a little more on things that i have been concerned about, or needed additional information on, at a glance.
the May edition had a very good article regarding the dangers of plastic which i shared with other folks especially childbearing women and men. i think that is the beauty of these articles, they are not so long as they are not an essay on any subject matter, however, it does provide enough info to get the public's attention so people can go for more research if they wish to get deeper. i will continue receiving my subscriptions.

I have been a reader from the first issue. Its a great magazine but..
As an international subscriber I am totally dissatisfied with customer service. Customer service does not respond. Web page account login does not work. Issues are missing as they are shipped through poor quality cheap couriers. Avoid !
