There is a wonderful magazine available called:
MacTutor - The Macintosh Programming Journal
It is published by Dave Smith and his wife. They have assembled an
excellent group of regular contributors to the magazine. The August
1985 issue (Vol. 1 No. 9) is 64 pages long is excellent as usual.
MacTutor is created with a Mac and is a pleasure to read.
The contents of the August issue include:
