I started reading the Economist because a friend bought me a subscription for my birthday present- I thanked him but secretly dismissed the present as rubbish. The magazines came in every week and soon began to pile up, unopened, in a stack which I would pretend to have read if my friend ever visited. This routine changed dramatically when one ...

If you consider yourself a well informed, global citizen, then the economist is probably already your publication of choice. Yes - leave it on your coffee table, read it on the tube, stuff it into your handbag just a few minutes late after arriving at your desk - the Economist will give you a well deserved aura of success and culture. ...

The Economist goes way beyond just economics, take it from someone who is barely passed Econ 110, this is not an academic journal on macro trends. That being said, its not a dumbed down version of anything either! The Economist is a weekly (cones out Friday) news magazine that covers your basic international relations, economics, current events, ... Read the complete review

I am currently studying economics at A-level and have throughly enjoyed the subject and found it very interesting on a personal level and particularly as it is key in every business, government and country. I am now looking to read economics at university and it was therefore suggested that i start reading the economist. I have since subscribed to ... Read the complete review

Only after having this suggested by my economics teacher and then being given a year's subscription by my grandparents did I pick up a copy of The Economist; perhaps the first thing to put you off is the hefty price tag (£3.90 a week currently) and the second is the sheer amount of News that it contains. Yes, with a capital N. This is ... Read the complete review

Let me start by saying that I would recommend The Economist to most people, but for me, it is not worth not only buying it, but also reading it! A paradox? A Contradiction in terms? Well, The Economist is very well written and covers mainly Economy and social affairs and business. Most of the articles do not display the name ... Read the complete review

I am a real fan on the Economist magazine, and have now been a subscriber for about 2 years. I first started reading it as a kid, as my family got it, but always found it extremely dull at the time (I wasnt as sad then as I am now!) However, with age and time, I've gradually realised how much of a quality journal it is. It comes out weekly, and ... Read the complete review

The Economist is a weekly news magazine (although my subscription tends arrive every two weeks). The Economist does have an economic bias; it is not that all its articles are on economics but rather that economists write all of its articles. At the Economist they have perfected the art of writing detailed, well-researched, impartial articles ... Read the complete review

Now I know that for writing this review, I’m going to be classed as a nerd, so in defence I have to say that ‘The Economist’ is a desired reading material, extra to the normal big fat, boring, text books and journals that I’m supposed and expected to read as part of my course. For all of those people who ... Read the complete review

I study Mathematics at University and towards the end of my second year I began to think about actually getting a job. One area I know that Mathematicians are often employed in is the Finance world. However, despite the fact that this type of work appealed to me, I didn't have a clue - I thought 'Blue chip' was a mouldy potato. As I ... Read the complete review

Throughout my A level years, reading the economist was considered extra reading. However the information provided was intelligible to the masses and was short enough to keep the reader interested and concentrated. The economist comes out once a week and provides the weeks major business and political affairs. What makes one choose The ... Read the complete review

I haven't bought this magazine for about 6 years, and I must admit, I actually quite miss it these days. In order for you to understand this review a little better, let me paint a background picture.... When I was in the 6th form, I studied "A" level English, History and Economics. I was interested in all three ... Read the complete review

The Economist is a veritable institution amongst magazines, offering not just economic insight in the world today but also political insight. As well as assorted articles about growth sectors and growth industries, there are a lot of listings for job vacancies in the economics sector. As economic trends are normally bucked by political ...

The Economist is the best newspaper for detailed studies of (1)issues (eg. the importance of the internet) and (2)countries (eg. Moldova, in the Sept 23 2000 issue).

I originally took out a subscription to the Economist in order to help me with my Economics A-level. However, since then I have continued to read it for the excellent coverage of world politics and economics. The main sections are the leaders (editorial opinion on five or six prominent issues), Britain, Europe, USA, the Americas, World ... Read the complete review

The Economist is a good weekly magazine for several reasons, it has the ability to make complex ideas simple, and has news stories from around the world. If you are a student, such as myself, and want to keep abreast of current affairs but don't have the time to read newspapers everyday, or keep the hours ot watch the news, the Economist is a ...
