E-cigarettes: Is smoking about to come back into fashion?
If you’ve knocked the fags on the head, only to get the munchies, technology can assist you towards a healthier lifestyle with the food you don't even have to chew.
Latest-generation CCTV cameras are bringing intelligent observation to some of the world’s most scrutinised cities. E&T zooms in on the innovations.
Ask yourself: ten years from now, will you be driving an electric vehicle? Many people hope you will – but the electricity networks are not so sure.
E&T ushers in a new year with a terrific new look for the magazine and a major website upgrade to boot. Bigger, longer and that much more satisfying, we're in the publishing equivalent of flavour country right now. On the subject of smoking, can e-fags really help knock addiction on the head? We also sit around inhaling food, worrying about the number of CCTV cameras watching us and wondering if our next car can be plugged in at the mains, along with a host of other electrifying engineering topics. There are also plenty of regular columns – both old favourites and new arrivals, an expanded reviews section and comprehensive news coverage, both in print and online.
