Country Gardens (1-year) This instant


This magazine is a must if you like your gardens informal but beautiful. This magazine is almost devoid of ads and much of the editorial content is very informative for both the novice and advanced gardener. The photography is excellent. I've been a subscriber for years and it's my favorite gardening magazine. Get more detail about Country Gardens (1-year).

Scientific American Immediately


Scientific American is a great magazine. The current format is a blend of public-readable writing and real science- and yes there's still plenty of real science in the pages. There's less formulas and math than there used to be- then again, most of the formulas and mathematics are now trademarked properties of megacorporations anyway, so the change isn't only one of style.

In these pages, you'll get lots of information and plenty of world view. From the large hadron collider to conflicts between Newtonian and quantum physics to the recent findings of space probes to the continues exploration of genetics... and yes to "popular" issues like the use of Facebook in the Iranian elections. In a nation that desperately needs more science education, this magazine should be required reading. The magazine does in fact include more populist articles and less true scientific writers than it once did, but the mix is not wholly offensive and you're still certain to find at least some articles that will speak way above your head on some issue or another. Personally, I can't stomach any part of Popular Mechanics or Discover or any of the other "technical" (re: Science by MTV) magazines anymore, but I still find the bulk of Scientific American entirely worthwhile.

Many reviewers say that Scientific American has an editorial bias toward liberal ideals. These comments say more about the current political divide in America than anything about the magazine itself. Like it or not, the current conservative party in America is decidedly anti-science, and if you browse any truly conservative media of the moment you'll likely see the word "scientist" used like a curse word (and usually not far an association to socialist or totalitarian regimes). Until the day when these politics become less extreme, a scientific American probably is a liberal American, and the magazine follows as such.

As a sidenote, anyone who thinks the magazine has never been political needs to puruise the section with snippets from old issues. Writers from bygone eras didn't just inject political beliefs, they often stated them in black-and-white and very plain terms. Maybe there's an argument to be had that the current writers should do the same, but the fact is that the magazine has always included a certain amount of political content between its pages.Get more detail about Scientific American.

Forbes (8-month) Get it now!


Forbes should stick to its strengths as a business magazine and leave out the politics.

Pros:
As a business magazine, Forbes does an excellent job at delivering succinct articles about business, economics, and stocks. In each issue, the magazine devotes a large section towards dispensing advice about money and investing.

Cons:
Forbes needs to leave out the political commentary and opinions out of their magazine. In recent issues, the magazine has been bashing the Obama administration. If Mr. Forbes wants to express his opinions then write for the National Review, or the Atlantic, but leave politics out of this business magazine. As a liberal, I found it frustrating to read the ideas and opinions section that included political commentary supporting conservatism, bashing liberals, and accusing Obama's policies as socialism.

Allure (2-year) Order Now


I have been recieving Allure magazine for years and am convinced that it's the best magazine to ever hit the market. I love make-up and products but some magazines tend to write articles mostly about products for their own advertisers. I feel that Allure is up front - they do point to their advertisers but they write about all products. They are really good about covering everything - I've recently started going organic and in about every issue I run across organic products. I love the magazine so much that I send a yearly subscription to my niece. When other magazines let me down - Allure always comes through. Get more detail about Allure (2-year).

The magazine is not being sent to the correct address.
It took a couple hours to order the magazine as I kept getting the run around re: my password. When the order was finally accepted, we neglected to ask that the magazine be sent to a different address as a gift.

Buy ReadyMade


The projects in this magazine remind me of something you would do in an art class in elementary school. They may be fun projects but not really something you want to display in your house.
