    WHY THIS MAGAZINE IS PUBLISHED

    "Awake!" is for the enlightenment of the entire family. It reports the news, tells about people in many lands, examines religion and science. But it does more. It probes beneath the surface and points to the real meaning behind current events, yet it stays politically neutral and does not exalt one race above another. It also shows how to cope with today's problems. Most importantly, "Awake!" builds confidence in the Creator's promise of a peaceful and secure new order within our generation.

    The Bible translation used in "Awake" is the modern-language "New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures," unless otherwise indicated.
