I think the Economist is a great magazine however there is so much information in each issue I am not able to keep up with the issues so I fall behind and, in some cases, that makes the information itself less valuable if it is time sensitive. Also I get other magazines and then I fall behind on those as well because I am trying to keep up with the Economist. It is not the Economist's fault but it is just my reality. I highly recommend the magazine if you want to have a great breadth of information about the world, business and science. Even their obituary is wonderful and often not someone you have ever heard of.
