Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Stunning, Unusual, and Highly Entertaining
My biggest complaint with this magazine is that it doesn't come often enough. While yes, certainly catered to a more scientifically aware, intelligent crowd, SEED by no means approaches the drudgery of a scientific journal. In each issues is even a thick, tear-out "cribsheet" on basic scientific issues or concepts from global warming and photosynthesis to string theory.

One of the defining characteristics of this magazine that make it so enjoyable is the visual content. Just as ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - "Science is Culture"
So says the magazine's subtitle. Well, of course. Being bold enough to come out and say so is different, though, in a world where marketing is considered a creative profession and engineering isn't.

This isn't a technical journal. I get "Science" magazine and read it avidly every week, plus a drift of professional magazines and transactions. Seed is something different. It's for the geek who'd rather see a picture of a Nobel winner than of Paris Hilton. (Can you imagine meeting all 295 ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Seed
Seed sent a promotional subscription to my work. I enjoyed it so much that i ordered it for myself. I enjoy it and only wish it came out more often!



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Great pictures!
I feel like a college grad just having these magazines on our coffee table! When the neighboors or people we want to impress come over, we lay these magazines out, switch the radio to NPR, hide the TV Guide and put on clean sweaters.

The pictures are amazing! The close-up shots are really colorful and it's hard to figure out what kind of plants these seeds came from. If Seed printed 12 issues a year insead of only 6, it would deserve a full 5 stars.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Off to a great start!
For anyone interested in all things scientific these days, we realize that it is becoming nearly impossible to dissect the science from the culture from which it is borne. This is the first time that I have seen an attempt to reconcile the two for a general market; science without a cultural content is equal to the proverbial tree falling in the woods with no one around to hear it fall. Did it happen? A resounding "yes." Was it registered, and therefore informative? A resounding "no." Tremendous kudos ... Read More
