Abstract
The recent editorial (July/August 2025) by Greg Stone, “How Can We Get Readers to Interact with Magazine Article Authors?” introduces an important initiative to enhance engagement within the articles published in IEEE Electrical Insulation Magazine (EIM). By incorporating reviewers' commentary and author responses alongside published articles, the magazine has the potential to significantly increase interaction with readers. As noted in the editorial, there has traditionally been little opportunity for authors to receive public feedback or clarify technical points. This is a welcome step toward establishing a more open and constructive technical dialogue in our community.
期刊介绍:
The EI Magazine publishes articles written by authors from industry, research institutes and academia. The articles are more practical in content than the papers published in the Transactions. Usually three articles are published in each issue. The articles deal with dielectric materials, processes and new developments applied to industry products. Also the EI Magazine is used to promote upcoming conferences and solicits papers for the conferences. In addition, reports on past conferences are given in many issues. Book reviews and news items are included. An editorial is written by both the EIC and the President of DEIS in alternate issues. Advertising of insulation products appears in many issues.
