I read BBC Knowledge regularly and love it. My favourite topics
are space, new technologies, and robots. The magazine has
helped me in my understanding of the scientific world and the
new advancement in the sphere of the world. It has also given
my general knowledge a boost, which helps me to perform better
in school. I remember it once also helped me in the National Science
Olympiad, a competitive exam.
I also follow the BBC Knowledge Facebook page and check
it every day because it gives me regular updates in my favourite
fields of interest.I am a big fan of the #feelsmartagain and the
#didyouknow series.

I’ve been reading BBC Knowledge
for a year now and I must say it has
given me a different perspective to
day-to-day things in life. Prior to
reading the magazine, I, was never
really interested in science and
technology-related news, but, now, I
love to read about interesting quirks
in science. I also love gadgets and
the gadget section is my favourite in
the magazine. In a way, I can say that my curiosity about the world has
grown by leaps and bounds. Interestingly, every person in my family
also makes it a point to read BBC Knowledge, but only after I have
finished reading.
I loved the February 2017 issue cover story, How Technology is
Rewiring Your Brain, and I found the interview with Sudha Murty very
insightful. I’m quite fond of collecting covers of national and international
magazines. Your February 2017 issue cover is now in my collection.
I would like to add that the Facebook page and other social media
outlets of BBC Knowledge are also well updated and I love to check out
the page every once in a while.
Keep adding the knowledge doses!

A couple of years ago, I picked up an issue of BBC Knowledge
for the first time and was pleasantly surprised. Starting from
the aesthetic look to the array of topics covered to the knack of
making complex things simple, relevant and digestible, I found
this a complete package for anyone who needs answers to a lot
of questions. I bought that first issue for my kids, but our whole family
is glued to it now. Look at the amazing range of topics this magazine
covers – from evolution to AI, from trigonometry to technology from
stem cells to stratosphere and from history to robotics. Seriously, who
says BBC Knowledge is for children? In comparison, our school text
books seem so dry... Keep up the good work (and try to get in touch
with education boards to make their books better).
