Scientific Amderican Mind is the brainchild of Scientific Amderican,the oldest continuously published magazine in the U.S.
THE MAGAZINE'S ILLUSTROUS PARENTAGE
In 1845, Rufus Porter founded the publication as a weekly broadsheet (a large format newspaper 15" x 20" of four pages a single sheet folded) subtitled "The Advocate of Industry and Enterprise, and Journal of Mechanical and Other Improvements." A restless inventor, Porter soon turned to other ventures, and after 10 months sold Scientific American - for the sum of $800 - to Orson Munn and Alfred Beach.
In an era of rapid innovation, Scientific American founded the first branch of the U.S. Patent Agency, in 1850, to provide technical help and legal advice to inventors. A Washington, D.C., branch was added in 1859. By 1900 more than 100,000 inventions had been patented thanks to Scientific American.
LEADING EDGE WRITERS AND NOBEL LAUREATES
More than 120 Nobel laureates have written for Scientific American, most of whom wrote about their prize-winning works years before being recognized by the Nobel Committee. In addition to the likes of Albert Einstein, Francis Crick, Jonas Salk and Linus Pauling, Scientific American continues to attract esteemed authors and world leaders from many fields.
The magazine has chronicled the major milestones, discoveries and inventions, such as the telephone and the incandescent lightbulb. Edison presented the prototype of the phonograph for inspection by the editors, and Samuel Morse, father of the telegraph, and Elias Howe, inventor of the sewing machine, were frequent visitors to the offices in downtown New York City.
