Chirality seems to be intimately associated with the growth and stabdity of self-assembled fibrillar networks of small organic molecules and with the most common macroscopic property of these networks, which is the ther-moreversible gelation of the solvent. The importance of chirality is apparent both at the molecular scale and at the scale of the self-assembled fibers, which typically ranges from nanometers to micrometers. This chapter attempts to review literature data about both these aspects.
