About American Scientist
Some magazines you flip through. American Scientist is one you sit down with. Each issue brings long-form articles by the scientists who actually did the research, covering everything from the physics of the very small to the ecology of whole continents, written for people who are curious rather than credentialed.
Beyond the features you will find book reviews, columns on the culture and practice of science, and thoughtful takes on the questions that new discoveries raise. It is the kind of magazine that starts conversations at the dinner table.
