[QUOTE="Heretic Apostate, post: 338386, member: 696"] I'm working on my Amazon.com "wish list" (my birthday is coming up, as is Christmas, and for once, I don't want family and friends to have to guess what I want or just slip me cash... my list is up to 35 items :) ). Anyway, I've already placed one "gift that keeps giving" on my wish list: a one-year subscription to Military History (one of my favorite magazines). Anyway, I'm looking at more science-minded magazines now, and was wondering what ones would be worth receiving (since there's no way I can afford to buy a subscription for myself): Scientific American (the reviews say that it's more of a liberal soapbox now, but I'd prefer to hear it firsthand from you guys... note that I'm more liberal than conservative, but I'm looking for a [u]science[/u] magazine... also, the reviews say it focuses on a narrow band of science--physics, chemistry, and the like--and is written in a very dry manner) Discover (said to be an easy read, but quick to outgrow) National Geographic (there's [u]got[/u] to be more to this magazine than pictures of topless foreign women, right? :) the reviews say it's got a broader span of science than Scientific American, as well as being written more for the layman) Too bad they don't have Omni... Anyway, I'd like to get opinions on the three. I'm sure the number of tech and science folks on these boards must be disproportionately high. :) Thanks! [/QUOTE]
