I have this immense liking for Discover and ensure that every issue lands at my house the old school way, as I like the offline version more than the online version. Name of magazine: Discover Magazine for analysis: I chose this magazine to analyze because of these two simple reasons, one that I was introduced to it as a young boy by my father and so it holds a nostalgic place in my life, and two because I find it both informative and creatively engaging! I like the way it engages the audience and helps to gain knowledge about the latest and not so latest progress in science.
