This Is Mars Edited and designed by Xavier Barral NASA has always been generous with its rich bounty of space imagery; it's mostly available online for all to see.

Inside The Rainbow: Russian Children's Literature 1920-35: Beautiful Books, Terrible Times Edited by Julian Rothenstein and Olga Budashevskaya While illustrated children's books are still a creatively rich publishing niche, back in the early days of Soviet Russia the genre combined two major facets of the emerging Soviet society: propaganda and aesthetic innovation. The Rainbow publishing house enjoyed a brief flowering in the 1920s, the period when the Russian avant garde was riding high on the first wave of optimism and poetry, literature and art could come together to create books with an unprecedented visual sophistication. It didn't last, of course, with many of the artists and authors showcased in this fascinating volume falling victims to the purges that followed. Published by Redstone Press, £35

The most charismatic of the latter is the cover star: Chipperfield's Neue Museum in Berlin, which remains a masterclass in how to combine sensitive restoration, modern insertions and a respect - almost fetish - for patina and history.
