Exploring the Ocean- Stating the Case for Chemistry Paul J. Scheuer
Salinity measurements and carbonate-bicarbonate equilibria used to be the only topics studied under what was known as "marine chemistry". But in the past few decades organic chemists have changed this situation profoundly by exploring the diverse fauna and flora of coral reefs and the ocean floor.

The Art and Science of Organic and Natural Products Synthesis K. C. Nicolaou, E. J. Sorensen, and N. Winssinger
In this article, the history of the art and science of organic and natural products synthesis is briefly reviewed and the state of the art is discussed. The impact of this discipline on biology and medicine is amply demonstrated with examples, and projections for future developments in the field are made.
