A review of "The New York Review of Books"

It was the December 2003 holiday issue that hooked me. Since then, I have been reading Review fairly regularly, off and on going to the back issues. Since I am not particularly in to any thing except mathematics, I was pleasanly see this endorsement of the Review:

One excerpt: "The first is the inherent interest and intellectual stimulation of each. But the second is that each is dazzlingly discussed in the most recent edition of the publication that, at least in the opinion of this general reader, has the largest claim to be regarded as the indispensable publication of the modern English-speaking world - the New York Review of Books."
