About the Cover:

This month's cover features a diagrammatic representation of the consecutive subsectioning of a piece of wood from the fiber to the molecular level, illustrating the way in which a cell wall is constructed from cellulose. A review of the chemistry of wood cellulose and its applications to the cellulose esters industry is presented by Wilson and Hamilton, beginning on page 49.
