The British science weekly New Scientist is my favorite magazine (barring SD Times, of course!). The front of the magazine is devoted to brief discussions of recent findings and then there are usually several longer articles that, while generally over-credulous (string theory and many-worlds being perennially batted back and forth), at least rely on, you know, scientists. The magazine hasĀ a political stance that I don't always agree with (they recently advocated academic boycotts, which I think is 100% wrong). But, in general, it's a great read.
