Mar 30, 2013 at 0:07 comment added user39719 @Andrew L: I would tend to disagree with you. It is certainly true that there are fewer journals that publish expository/survey work, but this is natural, as the volume of such work coming from research mathematicians is much lower than the volume of research articles (as to why this is - that's a different story; but I wouldn't infer from this a poor state of higher education in the US).
Apr 21, 2010 at 7:53 comment added The Mathemagician I'm saying that the lack of expository articles for relative beginners in mathematics is due to a larger problem of the percieved unimportance of educational value for such articles.This is why not only is the art of writing such articles dying out,it's being encouraged to do so very strongly.
Apr 19, 2010 at 1:30 comment added mathphysicist Andrew, I don't quite see which point you are trying to make. Could you make yourself (more) clear?
Apr 18, 2010 at 21:27 comment added The Mathemagician Notice is is not an American journal,mathphysicist. Other,civilized countries value education far more then ours.
