Insightful and intelligent

Date of Review:  Oct 21, 2000
Review: The first time I read "The Economist" was on a flight from Connecticut to California. I had picked it up after a friend of mine father recommended it. At first it was frustrating arguing any worldly manner with him because he would say "That's a...

The Best Weekly

Date of Review:  Feb 20, 2004
Review: The Economist is the best weekly within the financial press. The Brits have it hands down on their American competitors, including Businessweek, Forbes, and Fortune.

The Economist coverage of World affairs and World politics is second to...

The Economist

Date of Review:  Jan 28, 2000
Review: The editors of the Economist (the same company which publishes the Financial Times) insist on calling it a newspaper, but it is much, much more than that. The Economist offers a complete and consistent view in all its analysis of news and current...

A mag about the world, written by the Brits for Americans

Date of Review:  Feb 5, 2000
The Bottom Line: Read it to know the world.
Review: Here is a weekly magazine not just about business and politics but about the culture and technology of a changing world. There are very few magazines which can write with authority on such diverse topics from so many locations and end up with...

Great Writing, Great Content

Date of Review:  Dec 11, 1999
Review: I love The Economist. It is incredibly well written, and uses vocabulary and analysis well above your average US news magazine. It never skims the surface of events - The Economist will always look a little deeper.

The magazine does have a...

The Seven Course Gourmet meal

Date of Review:  Oct 24, 1999
Review: Time, Newsweek and USN&WR are the fast food drive-thrus of national [US] and world news. The Economist is clearly the seven course gourmet meal.

What first caught my attention about The Economist was that I consistently found articles...

The best of a very bad lot....

Date of Review:  Jan 26, 2002
The Bottom Line: Buy it but read it with an understanding of its faults and biases.
Review: The best reasons for buying the Economist? Time, Newsweek, US Snooze and World Report, etc. It is, against excruciatingly weak competition, the best general news magazine in existence. Relatively long articles on a broad range of topics and...

The Reigning Champion of Newsweeklies

Date of Review:  Oct 6, 2000
The Bottom Line: The Economist is the best newsmagazine in the world. Period.
Review: After over eight thousand issues, England's weekly newsmagazine The Economist retains its unchallenged title of the world's best weekly news magazine, completely burying such second-raters as Time and Newsweek in the U.S. and Der Spiegel in Germany...

Newsmagazine for the Intelligensia

Date of Review:  Nov 9, 1999
Review: The Economist is a great magazine for people with a graduate degree and an IQ in the top 3% of the population. It has much more intellectual rigor than most other writing you see these days outside of academia. They will gladly show elasticity...

Review: Whenever I approach the reading of this magazine, I do so as if I were going to read one of the various business or economics books assigned by one of my business professors. This is a serious magazine that does not look atpolitical and economic...
