 Best price based on magazine price search engine August 17, 2008
My wife likes to read Time magazine and I believe that Amazon may have the best price for it out there at the time of the review.
 Be the smartest person you know. July 20, 2008

As a teacher, I am always being asked for shortcuts to knowledge. My response is simple: "Subscribe to TIME and/or NEWSWEEK and read them religiously. In three years' time, you'll be the smartest person you know." I know that's not exactly true. What I mean by that bit of hyperbole is: you'll "appear" to be the smartest person you know because no one will be able to bring something up that you aren't at least AWARE of and can speak intelligently about (or at least ask an intelligent question.) Nearly every subject is covered by these great institutions--most of the time impartially. It comes with your name on the cover and entices you to open it. Who knows what you'll learn?
I know that all this is available on the internet, but the distractions of the internet are irresistible, I may be old-fashioned, but there is no substitute for holding something in your hand. And nobody can edit it when you're not looking. Plus, the writers are professionals, not anonymous bloggers who face no repercussions for their inaccuracies.
Many learners today are hard-pressed to find time among their activities to actually LEARN. TIME is a great shortcut to information which if used becomes knowledge which, when absorbed, eventually becomes wisdom. Wisdom will earn a decent salary and respect in your community.. OK, so you may not actually become the smartest person you know, but it's a start.

We are happy to be receiving Time magazine during the election year so we can read as much as we can about the candidates. Wish we had started it earlier.
a good weekly news magazine--as far as it goes, that is January 10, 2008

Time used to be a lot better; they would spend more time on the pages of the magazine informing people about the news, life and times of our generation and even other generations. They would continue to do follow-up stories more so than they do these days. However, slowly but surely, the magazine has rejected that strategy in favor of more frequent sensationalist front page articles and many more advertisements in the weekly issue.
One thing I do like very much is that once in a while Time devotes the bulk of an issue to a retrospective view of times past. Their person of the year choice is always suspenseful; and I like that issue very much in particular.
Overall, if you want a weekly news magazine, Time is one of those out there to consider. Remember that there'll be more ads than ever before; but the articles that they do present are very well written.
Three and one-half stars.
