4.0 out of 5 stars Astraea Magazine Review, January 8, 2007

This review is from: The Best Of Astraea: 17 articles on science, history and philosophy (Paperback)

The Best of Astraea- not a bad choice of names for a magazine that covers just about everything. For a reader interested in archaeology, astronomy, anthropology, art, and that's just the "A"s... there's plenty of interesting reading.

Some articles are written on a plane that requires a handy reference manual; others are relatively easier to follow.

As for the quality of the articles in this "best of" Astraea - the vast majority I found to be a worthwhile read, although there were a couple of contributions that fell far short of my benchmark for credibility. That being said, the magazine is for free thinkers; it is for readers who are free to think for themselves, and for those who respect divergent theory and thought.

It's certainly worth noting that some of the articles that I enjoyed the most would in times past (and still may) be regarded as heresy. That thought makes me appreciate the diversity in content and opinion found within Astraea's pages.

The artwork (cover and inside) are of a quality that would stand up well in comparison to any magazine's art department. Astraea's artwork compliments beautifully the articles that it accompanies.

This one deserves to be read cover to cover, and to be left out on the table to be viewed by guests that you'd like to impress.
