My family has had subscriptions to Scientific American for three generations.
I have old copies announcing the Wright brothers famous flights.
Sadly times have changed!
In the past 20 years this once great magazine has been turned into a political left wing activist rag.
Every single issue now has several articles about global warming just for starters.
If you are a left winger then this is the rag for you.
If you want to read about "Industry and Enterprise" and/or "Mechanical and other Improvements" forget it; this ain't that!
2/3's of this magazine is now devoted to political discourse.
If you want science then get a subscription to "Science News" or "Science" if you can afford it.
Don't waste your time or money on this propaganda until they scrap their editorial slant and go back to their roots.
I am sure their subscription numbers are sinking fast!

I used to read Scientific American 10 years ago and found it to be too technical.
Now it's written so that a non-Phd can comprehend it.

I used to love Scientific American in the 70s and 80s and saved all the issues. But I started noticing a fundamental dilemma: each issue had an article that was superficially science but mainly political, and always of a left-wing nature. If they labeled these articles as editorials, there would be no problem, but they always tried to pass them off as scientific truth. I dropped out. Then I started a subscription recently in order to not lose my airline miles. The January 2010 issue was a big disappointment. About half the articles had political messages, much worse than in the 80s. How sad to see a great magazine taken over by political ideologues.

I bought this subscription for my husband and pretty much everyone in our family reads it including our 4 year old and my dad who visits us from Hawaii. My dad loves it so much we're getting him a subscription for xmas. They always include intriguing content.

Throughout the sixties and seventies this magazine, this Scientific American, played a significant role in the development of budding critical thinkers. At the least it was a periodical that satisified thoughtful, logical thinkers. Thinkers that had been abandon by the dry, inaccurate textbooks provided by the bureaucratic, so-called educational boards that served no other function but to pander to their political interests. At most it served as a treatise of legitimate scientific thought. This once revered, lay, scientific journal that with some effort could be understood by those of us that were ignorant, but interested, has now debased itself into a gooey morass of popular political pap. If you remember it as an enjoyable, informative, periodical that for decades served the purpose of satisfying your thirst for lay scientific knowledge, it is no longer. It now serves the egos of the mediocre thinkers that believe their view of existance should be yours.
