Rating: ![5 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-5-0.gif) Summary: a must read for the curious! Review: This was an informative, interesting & often hilarious book. I have used it for several years as a resource while teaching about microbes at a science museum in Chicago. But don't get me wrong, this book is written to be enjoyed by non-science folk, as well as, the science teacher. It is easy to navigate through when used as a resource and fun to read cover to cover, like a book of well written essays.
Rating: ![4 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-4-0.gif) Summary: Good for those in the field, and for the curious Review: Usually, I approach texts such as this with some trepidation, because they have a tendancy of being the author's perception as well as some half-baked theory of a conspiracy. This book is objective, clear-cut, and explains in simple terminology, the story behind our most common "bugs" and the diseases they cause. If you are intrigued by the field of diseases, I suggest you check this one out. Also check out "Killer Germs" (Barry & David Zimmerman) for something more in depth and historical.
