Basic to our magazine is a steady focus on the power of the individual.

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.
Deep within our widely varied package of humor, drama, and helpful information, there hums (哼唱) a subtle power that guides people in every aspect of their lives. They listen because what we put forth rings true.
