WonderFUL!
Review of Wonderpedia by
Deesrev
Advantages: Affordable magazine, furnishes readers with comprehensive up-to-date information with amazing pics
Disadvantages: None whatsoever
~The Product ~ My ‘Wonderwall’!~
Wonderwall is not an actual word in any dictionary but I felt the sub-title well-fitting if one takes the urbandictionary.com definition, ‘A barrier which separates the mundane from the Transcendent Reality. A true Wo ...

Brief review on 'Psychologies'
Review of Psychologies by
littlepot
Advantages: It had quite a good book & movie recommendations list
Disadvantages: Everything
I'm currently doing a degree in psychology and sociology, so I picked up this magazine as I've heard people discussing it before and thought it might be helpful to me for my course. Well, I was wrong. It's just like all the other women's magazines but dis ...

A fascinating and thought provoking magazine
Review of Psychologies by
emily16022011
Advantages: Covers a variety of areas and is different from normal women's magazines
Disadvantages: Not to everyones taste
...have a monthly subscription of Psychologies and really enjoy reading each magazine. I find general women's magazines full of adverts and information on celebrities, fashion and make-up which is not really me. Until Psychologies started there were no mag ...

Present day science shown in a high quality journalistic form
Review of New Scientist by
obbsey
Advantages: Interesting, varied articles, up to date
Disadvantages: Can be a bit expensive, some background knowledge of science usually nessecery
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 subscription ...

Disadvantages: can be quite costly, addictive reading which can take a good few hours to finish reading an issue

Something to read (other than Ciao!)
Review of Focus by
miketurner
Advantages: Informative and entertaining
Disadvantages: Some information duplicated on TV
I found this magazine quite accidentally in a small newsagents while I was working away in Dublin recently. It caught my eye as I noticed it was published by the BBC and it had the headline "The worlds best science & technology monthly". I took it back to ...

Psychologies - an interesting but patchy read
Review of Psychologies by
Bitchqueenofneworleans
Advantages: Some interesting stuff covered and good journalism
Disadvantages: Some weak articles and repetition
I subscribed to this after getting one edition free with Red Magazine, who are Psychologies' stable mate. I subscribed for a year or so, but I no longer subscribe. I still occasionally buy it, but I found an edition every month was a little too much nav ...

Foucus is by far the most accessible science and technology monthly on the market at the moment. The magazine regularly features an "Agenda" section which outlines all the major scientific developments in the time since it last went to press from rocket l ...

"News, Ideas, Innovation"
Review of New Scientist by
BlueMidget
Advantages: Interesting and often entertaining articles
Disadvantages: Occasionally becomes a little too technical
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 m ...

Psychologies
Review of Psychologies by
rachieb123
Advantages: Interesting read
Disadvantages: Bit pricey
I found this magazine a good hybrid between a psychology textbook and a fashion type magazine the likes of Glamour, Cosmopolitan etc.
The magazine brings psychology into a new light, rather than being a lot of neurones or even a patranoising self help ...

For New and Old Scientists alike
Review of New Scientist by
liz1102
Advantages: Informative, Interesting, Easy to read, appeals to wide group of people
Disadvantages: Too many ads and job ads, it is quite expensive as it's weekly.
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 tec ...

Weird name, great mag.
Review of Psychologies by
hannahp12
Advantages: Something very different in the glossies market.
Disadvantages: Bit pricey.
I bought this magazine two days ago, and have read it cover to cover. As I never do that with any magazine these days, it says something to start with. Although it looks much like your standard glossy mag, I was surprised and impressed by the content. It ...
