It's a high-quality, carefully written and illustrated magazine about
Arab and Moslem culture, often including articles about medieval
Islamic culture and technology, published every two months.  It carries
no ads, yet costs nothing to subscribe -- the publisher, the Saudi
national oil company Aramco, can easily afford to put out a magazine to
bolster its public image, or as the masthead says, "to increase
cross-cultural understanding.  The magazine's goal is to broaden
knowledge of the culture of the Arab and Muslim worlds and the history,
geography and economy of Saudi Arabia."
