This is the second time I‘ve listened to this audiobook, and it was just as fascinating as the first time!

Fascinating!! And though I listened closely to the audiobook, I know so much didn‘t stick in my brain, but what did has altered the way I look at the world! What a great way for the average (non scientific) reader to learn about how bacteria has shaped life on this planet! This would be a great pick for #NaturaLitsy too. Love Ed Yong!

AnnR This is one of my favorite nonfiction science related books, too. 5mo

Utterly fascinating. I never knew I needed a book about microbes but this was so informative and easy to comprehend. Highly recommend.

After reading this, we tried using cheap hand-held scopes. I'm sure they were disappointed, but experienced enough practice that their next opportunity will be even better. Giving them background building opportunities!

I knew there were beneficial gut bacteria, but I wasn‘t aware of all the details of what that means and the ways microbes effect every living thing. Amazing!

Did you know there are worms in the deep sea that don‘t eat at all because their biomes produce all of the nutrients they need?

Did you know bioluminescent squid are bioluminescent because of tiny microbes that live inside them?

I learned so much reading this. I‘ll read everything by EY.

SamAnne I thought this one was much better than his most recent. Absolutely loved this one. 12mo

#12Bookin2022 I reread this one with my students for my upper level Microbiology course. It is an amazing read and as a microbiologist, I feel it is the most excessive read that explains the importance of bacteria. So this is my December pick! And that rounds out my 2022! Thanks @Andrew65 Great way to reflect on the year.

SamAnne I loved this one! More than his current one An Immense World. 1y
Daisey I loved this one and need to reread/relisten! 1y
Andrew65 Looks good. Thanks for playing along, I agree, it has been a great way to review the Reading year. 1y

Listened to this on audio after hearing @MicrobeMom give a rave review- it took me 3 months to finish- not because it was bad- because it was great! And I only listened when I could really pay attention (hard because I‘m usually multitasking when doing audio) - I am hopeful and fascinated by the study of microbes and human health- there is so much to discover and apply! I also highly recommend this to science/non fiction lovers.

MicrobeMom So glad you enjoyed it. Still my reread with my students! Hopefully they like it as much as you did! ♥️♥️ 1y

I was really looking forward to this one. But maybe my hoes were too high and that made me not like it as well. I really wanted it to be all about all the stuff in our bodies. But there was too much about other things.
