Author's Review

Science News has always been a favorite publication of mine. It is a weekly magazine (more like a newsletter) that covers articles and discoveries in the scientific field. It has always reminded me of those Weekly Readers we used to get in school! Why? This weekly "newsmagazine" is only about 14-16 pages in length, that's the TOTAL magazine! Now you see why I call it the Weekly Reader for Adults!

Science News

Science News is published by Science Service which is a non-profit organization. This accounts for the very few ads placed in this publication. It is enjoyable to look at a publication that is not plastered with ads for a change! This publication is available by subscription only

The articles are divided into 3 categories: This Week's News, Articles, and Research Notes.

You will find short articles in Science News that will highlight the Science News of the Week. These articles range in length to a quarter of a page to one half of a page in length. Most are brief articles that just give the details or highlights of a research finding, discovery, or results.

There are also full feature articles in Science News that go into more depth. These articles are devoted to several pages and take up a great deal of the total space of the weekly edition.

The other articles fall into the Research Notes section and are short articles on research findings, results and discoveries.

All of the articles are written in a style that most people with a high school education can understand. They do not publish articles here that would be in the same format as a research journal and in layman terms only. This is another nice feature of this publication.

Photography is held to a minimum. About half of the articles have very small pictures to illustrate some point in the article itself that will only take up a few inches of space. I suppose these small pictures are necessary to hold the reader's interest. I know I would probably not sit and read this publication if it was 100% text!

The Books section covers books of a scientific nature and range from nature to environmental; to chemical to mathematical concepts. You will see Books on several pages and it will look like a regular advertisement. Also, the back cover is devoted to book and/or calendar sales. All of the books advertised in Science News are sold through Book News, a subsidiary of Science News.

The last section I will cover in Science News is actually located in the front of the magazine and usually found right below the Table of Contents. It is the Letters section. Here you will find letters from readers with comments about recent articles.

I find this publication to be very interesting and helpful. It definitely increases my knowledge on subjects I would otherwise never read about. The short articles are enjoyable and knowledgeable.

Subscriptions Information

Subscriptions are $49.50 for one year or $88.00 for two years. Contact their customer service department at 1-800-552-4412.

~Thanks for reading!~
