The latest issue of NPR is now available, featuring five reviews on topics ranging from sugar nucleotide synthesis to natural sesquiterpenoids. 

The cover image (above) shows the Mexican bush sage, Salvia leucantha, whose genus name is derived from the Latin for ''to heal''. A number of diterpenoids are produced by Salvia species, including the hallucinogenic salvinorin A. These and other diterpenoids are discussed in the latest article by Jim Hanson (University of Sussex, UK), featured in this issue.
