New Scientist is currently celebrating its 50th Anniversary, so what better time to write a review of it. In 1956 a publisher by the name of Maxwell Raison realised that there was a 'hungry thirst amongst ordinary people to know more about science and technology'. The result was the first ...
When I was in Year 9 a conversation came up about New scientist with a teacher of mine. She was quick to inform me that this magazine was beyond my level. She's the same teacher who didn't put me into the Level 10 SATS that year. I proceeded ...
Most people would think a science magasine was boring. But if they read this magasine I'm betting they would change their minds.

I'm sure everyone remembers their science lessons as a child - having to wear safety-glasses, learning the periodic table, using Bunsen burners to melt biros, (perhaps that was just my class?). For many, these are the first lessons that begin to answer many questions you have as a child ...
It is a common misconception that you have to fulfil three qualities in order to read the New Scientist. They are: 1. You are a nerd 2. You have super brain powers 3. You don’t get out much. Well, it is my opinion that all of the above are ...
Tending to focus on topical aspects of biology, New Scientist is lively, easy to read and relevant to the general public, something which is rarely achived in the scientific press, and yet it doesnt shy away from the complex and difficult areas, and may go into particular detail when the ...
Every large subject area had it’s own magazine. Some have many. But it’s not the quantity of magazines that you should be concerned about, but more the quality - one good magazine is a whole lot better than a load of rubbish ones. New Scientist is a weekly magazine ...

The main scientific disciplines such as physical sciences, biological and life sciences, computer technology and mathematics are covered, albeit not necessarily in every issue...Informative, not advancedI haven't found a ...
I've always been interested in science right from a very young age, but it only really became apparent when deciding what A Levels I should do. I opted for Maths, Chemistry, Biology and Physics. Whoa! You might be thinking thats way too much science! I guess it was a ...
I first started reading New Scientist when I began an OU science-based degree course, and rapidly became hooked! I quickly took out a subscription, (40% off for new subscribers!) and every Thursday morning all thoughts of housework, study, childcare etc went out of the window as I opened that......
Dynamic ,vibrant and colourful the New Scientist caters for the specialist and layman alike, its contents are reliable and up to date which means it's an excellent starting point for most, if not all subjects in science.I have found it a valuable addition from school up to degree ...
New Scientist is probably one of my favourite magazines of all time. As someone with a science background I find some of the articles in New Scientist absolutely amazing. I particularly enjoy any articles about space, sub-atomic particles, quantum physics/mechanics, etc. All the things that I...THE general ...
I bought a subscription to New Scientist earlier this year and have loved every minute of it. I used a 50% discount that can be found in many New Scientist issues so if you are a regular reader, I think it is worth using one of those to get a ...
