Cover Story: Brookite - the once least known TiO2 polymorph - is now recognized as an active phase with peculiar properties and photocatalytic performances. In this review, the most recent advances in brookite TiO2 materials synthesis and applications are summarized, focusing on structure/activity relations studies of phase and morphology-controlled materials. The days in which brookite was considered just an undesirable byproduct are long gone, it is now time to dig deeper and find out even more about this and other less familiar TiO2 polymorphs.
