The foreign correspondent and fiction writer Philip Caputo's new novel about aid workers in Africa, "Acts of Faith," lands in bookstores with all the high-minded weightiness of an airdrop. The book's settings are almost untouched in recent English-language fiction: the war-torn, famine-racked Sudan of the 1990s and the semipermanent encampments of relief workers clustered in neighboring countries.

Andrew Niccol's first two films as writer/director, 1997's Gattaca and 2002's S1m0ne, were hollow, sterile sci-fi masquerading as earnest satire: The former told of a near future in which parents could genetically engineer perfect children; the latter proffered an actress who became the most famous and beloved movie star in Hollywood, though she existed only as bytes on a hard drive. And when totaling the works on Niccol's résumé, one can't discard his 1998 screenplay for The Truman Show, a prophetic look at reality television long before its ascendancy.

In an unprecedented move by an organization not exactly known for unbridled creativity, the Chemical Heritage Foundation has lit a match under its oxygen tank. Its newly opened "The Sky's the Limit" exhibit examines the role of atomic technology and the impact of polymers in 1950s pop culture. The display captures the innocence of the day and the widespread belief that through chemistry, anything was possible.
