> writing for people who had not attended college versus for people who had at least a four year college degree I'm from Italy so I read Le Scienze since the 80s. It was a translation of almost every article of Scientific American (they had a license), Martin Gardner's Mathematical Games plus one original Italian article and many very short stories (they are original Italian content now, I can't remember who were the authors back then.) I started reading it well before going to university. It was more challenging than the more vanilla scientific magazines on the newsstands but hardly not accessible by somebody interested in science and technology. It dumbed down when Scientific American dumbed down but I could get interesting content on the Internet by then. I still subscribe to it. It gets some articles from Quanta Magazine now, maybe Scientific American does it too. As an aside, when I see a link to a SciAm story here, I know that I'll get the Italian translation in my mail box after two or three months. I read both.
