Summary: Has this magazine run out of things to write about?
Comment: I am 28 years old and I have every issue of this magazine that has been published since I was born (thanks Mom & Dad for the ongoing subscription). It used to be the gold standard of magazines...well, its really a Journal publication.
The photography featured in the magazine is still top notch and beautiful. However, since when did subjects like Cafeine and Stem Cells (both recent cover stories) have anything to do with geography? This magazine used to spin tales of expeditions to far flung lands and interesting tribes and so on. Perhaps its a testament to the fact that we are all becoming more and more globalized and the cultures of the world are becoming more and more homogonized with every passing year, but it seems some of the subject matter as of late is really stretching the scope of the publication.
Second, I recall as a child and adolescent receiving the maps that came with the editions every 3 or 4 months. They would adorn the walls of my bedroom and eventually even my college dorm room. But in the past five years it seems that these fold outs have included things like pictures of dinosaurs, ancient fish, and big elephants.....not so geographical.
I remember reading articles about people summitting mountains and dogsledding to the South Pole and now we get cover stories entitled "Love: The Chemical Reaction"....what?

Summary: Outstanding Magazine!
Comment: This magazine is truly outstanding! It is very informative and only rarely makes mistakes! I love the indepth and informative articles that they provide. I also love the way that they always have such clear and beautiful pictures and there is no shortage of them either! I also love the fact that all of the articles are in line with mainstream science.

Summary: Still fantastic.
Comment: I've learned so much from this magazine. It takes you into cultures from all over the world and teaches you about them. Every month you're looking at pictures of events and people sometimes in places that you have never even heard of. Really educational and top notch.
