1 out of 5 stars Old news, Bad customer service   May 25, 2010

I purchased a gift subscription to Discover in October 2009, indicating that it was a Christmas gift. They didn't send a gift notification card, and didn't bother sending the magazine until the March 2010 issue. When I contacted them about it, they didn't even apologize.

As for the magazine itself, my gift recipient was appalled by the ad-to-content ratio, and found that most of the articles were old news that he'd already read about online by the time the magazine arrived.

The mix of articles is always balanced. Some articles are short, others are long. That fits my typical magazine reading - I browse when it first arrives, then take more time for the in-depth articles. Some articles are easy reading, some are more arcane, I like that mix, as well. I really appreciate reading about the most recent theories then reading valid criticisms.

I've only received one issue so far. I received the March 2010 issue in mid February.

The magazine is very interesting for someone who's always curious about what's going on in Technology, Astronomy, and other scientific areas.

I do not understand why it takes a full two months from the time of subscribing until the first issue is delivered. The magazine is wonderful, but the service could be improved.

A great magazine. Gives a good insight of current scientific developments. It is geared for the average reader so professionals might find it a bit light. If you're like me and want to know what's going on in the world of science it's great read.
