Chemistry World April 22, 2014 Stephen McCarthy	Molecules mimic mesmerizing mathematics Computer modelling has shown for the first time how organic molecules could assemble into molecular quasicrystals, raising the possibility of new materials with exotic properties.
Chemistry World April 22, 2014 Toby Sainsbury	Graphene: fundamentals and emergent applications This excellent book offers an expansive overview of the tremendously exciting field of research that the discovery of graphene created.
Chemistry World April 17, 2014 Elisabeth Ratcliffe	How to print a crystal in 3D Scientists in the US have devised a method for printing three dimensional models of crystals using a 3D printer, the original CIF file and freely available software that can be run on standard operating systems.
Chemistry World April 17, 2014 Bill Griffith	Up from generality This book is really an extended essay on inorganic chemistry, concentrating on the period from the mid-20th century to the present and in particular the upsurge -- the so-called 'renaissance' -- proclaimed in the 1950s.
Chemistry World April 16, 2014 Elinor Hughes	Starfish glue secrets under the microscope Scientists believe they have found the protein that lets starfish feet temporarily glue themselves to a surface.
Chemistry World April 16, 2014 Jennifer Newton	DNA cube programmed for an exclusive reveal Scientists in Canada have made DNA cubes that are programmed to unzip and reveal molecules locked inside them in response to a carefully chosen trigger.
Chemistry World April 15, 2014 Abigail Hallowes	Toilet flushes could help power homes Researchers in South Korea have devised a way to harness the motion of water, including from raindrops or from a flushing toilet, as a sustainable energy source.
Chemistry World April 15, 2014 Martin McCoustra	Life beyond Earth In my view, this book by Coustenis and Encrenaz would be a good base for a short course on astrobiology as opposed to astrochemistry. The observational content is well written and clearly explained in a most readable fashion for the non-expert.
Fast Company May 2014 Adam Bluestein	How IBM Is Using Nanotechnology To Tackle MRSA And HIV IBM's unusual nanomedicine program is tackling a range of ambitious projects: creating better antimicrobial and antifungal agents, new methods of drug delivery, and novel ways of combating such diseases as HIV/AIDS and tuberculosis.
Chemistry World April 14, 2014 Mary Macleod	Raman bites into tooth decay Researchers in the US have adapted Raman imaging systems to demonstrate the technique's potential for spotting warning signs of dental cavities.
