USE the new Fathom website. It is ‘fully responsive’- that means it looks great whether you are using a PC, tablet or mobile phone. It has a page for each contributor pages, easier access to back issues, new features, including a ‘video of the week’ and a ‘photo of the week’ from Israel, easier to use podcasts, and an improved search facility. We have decluttered the site and we hope the reading experience is better.
