Our world is swarming with invisible organisms - bacteria and fungi that affect their hosts and environments in diverse ways, from initiating processes in the production of penicillin, wine and cheese to causing devastating crop failures and deadly outbreaks of cholera.
In Life at Small Scale, David B. Dusenbery takes readers into the mysterious microscopic world that these organisms inhabit. He investigates how they behave, and why, providing a fascinating look at the rules that govern their world, from the physics that allows them to move without legs or muscles to the different means of dispersal micro-organisms use.
With rich illustrations and intriguing studies of microscopic creates, Life at Small Scale reveals the strange life that thrives unseen all around us - and within us.
