We are at the forefront of major issues of medicine, health, environment, human rights. We take readers behind the headlines to the cause and meaning of world events. We celebrate courage, champion adventure and always seek to expand the mind, and to enrich the spirit and the body. It is this clear voice—never preaching (说谎), always showing-that has made readers set us apart from all other magazines.

So long as we never lose sight of these powerful principles that are at the soul of our magazine-and so long as we remain at the cutting edge of life in our world—then we are prepared to lay claim to a future as brilliant and as exciting as our past.
