Science magazine

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

For the academic journal Science, see Science (journal).

A science magazine is a periodical publication with news, opinions and reports about science for a non-expert audience. A periodical publication for scientific experts, in contrast, is called a "scientific journal". Science magazines are read by non-scientists and scientists who want accessible information on fields outside their specialization.

They are an important means of communication between the scientific community and the wider community.[who?]

Articles in science magazines are sometimes republished or summarized by the general press.
