1. An article for use with an apparatus for heating smokable material to volatilize at least one component of the smokable material, the article comprising:
smokable material; and
a cover around the smokable material, wherein the cover defines an outer surface of the article and includes a closed circuit of heater material that is heatable by penetration with a varying magnetic field generator of the apparatus, and wherein the cover comprises:
a first wrapper that encircles the smokable material, the first wrapper comprising a sheet of material and a plurality of discrete portions of the heater material in or on the sheet of material that is heatable by penetration with a varying magnetic field,
a second wrapper that encircles the first wrapper, wherein the first and second wrappers being configured such that when the article is used with the apparatus to volatilize at least one component of the smokable material, the second wrapper is between the magnetic field generator of the apparatus and the first wrapper, and
an adhesive adhering free ends of the first wrapper to each other, and wherein the adhesive comprises heating material that is heatable by penetration with a varying magnetic field.
