5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent April 17, 2010

By M. Fox

Science News makes a wonderful addition to the Kindle magazine offerings because:
1. There are few science offerings, especially hard science.
2. Science News makes a good text read. So many magazines are exposed as having little useful content when put in Kindle formatting. Not so Science News. Other such rich content magazines include The New Yorker, The Economist, Foreign Affairs and The Times Literary Supplement.
3. The conversion of this magazine is very well done with and excellent Table of Contents and many graphics.

Highly recommended.
I am using a Kindle DX

5.0 out of 5 stars Kindle Edition April 20, 2010

By Gregory M. Reed

Science News has done an extraordinary job with it's Kindle edition. All the content is there and terrifically easy to navigate. Pictures and graphics are not only present, but a click enlarges them for full-screen viewing! I've been on pins and needles for Science News Kindle Edition. Now that it's here, it far exceeds my expectations!

5.0 out of 5 stars Agree with other accolades August 14, 2010

By Ed Pegg TOP 100 REVIEWERVINE™ VOICE

I always liked Science News, with minimal ads, and always a good round-up of science articles. With the Kindle, I tried to find some good magazines to subscribe to.

Science News is one magazine doing things right -- reasonable pricing, with images, delivered on time. The Kindle and the publishing industry needs more of these.

Perhaps one thing that Science News has going for it is length -- typically less than 32 pages. Without a lot of fluff, and little to no ads, it's possible to cram a lot of good material in a small space.

Edit: I've added a picture of a sample page.
