The Society for Science & the Public (SSP), the US-based publisher of Science News magazine, has launched a new weekly publication, Science News Prime (SN Prime), available only on the iPad.
SN Prime, like Science News, seeks to offer readers concise, current and comprehensive coverage of news from across the spectrum of scientific disciplines in an illustrated full-colour format. Each week, readers will find an accessible digest of new discoveries and developments in various fields along with a feature article exploring the frontiers of research and important issues involving science and technology. SN Prime includes select content not available elsewhere, including rotating columns, a "People" department on the personal side of the scientific enterprise, extended book reviews and short items on weird and wonderful creatures.
The publication is edited for a broad readership, ranging from science enthusiasts without advanced training to practicing scientists interested in keeping up with fields of research beyond their own disciplines. SN Prime articles are written by the same staff of experienced science journalists as Science News. These include specialists in their areas of coverage who emphasise accuracy and clarity while putting the latest scientific findings in perspective, according to SSP. Readers can purchase a single issue for $2.99. Monthly and yearly subscriptions cost $6.99 and $49.99, respectively.
