WITH THIS issue, Michael Kenward steps down from the editorship of New
Ů��С��Ƶ after 10 years in the hot seat, and is succeeded by David Dickson.
Kenward will, among other activities, become science correspondent of the
Sunday Times. He joined the magazine in 1969, and was appointed editor in
1979. During his period in office, the magazine has significantly expanded
its journalist staff, introduced the use of colour photographs and illustrations,
opened offices in Washington, Melbourne, Tokyo and Brussels, launched an
Australian edition, won many editorial and design awards, and passed 100
000 in circulation. But he will perhaps be best remembered by his colleagues
for what one describes as his ‘no nonsense, point-blank sound advice’. Dickson
joined New Ů��С��Ƶ as news editor last September, having spent four years
as Washington correspondent for Nature, followed by seven years as European
correspondent for the US journal Science.
