Prospect

Prospect magazine is a fantastic read. It covers all kinds of topics from politics to Arts and Culture to Science to Economics to Sociology. It is basically a series of essays written by contributors from around the globe, but don't let the word essay put you off, it is highly readable and as entertaining as it is informative. At £4.50 an issue Prospect does not come cheap, however it is quality in every way even down to the paper and print. You will also be pleasantly surprised by the lack of advertising with in the magazine. If you need some thing to read to keep you entertained whilst stretching your brain at the same time then Prospect is the magazine for you. The only real bad point I guess is the crossword, it has to be the hardest crossword in the world!
