I Contain Multitudes by Ed Yong

I Contain Multitudes by Ed Yong

You are carrying roughly as many microbial cells as human ones, and Ed Yong's book is a tour of what they are doing there — mostly helping, sometimes harming, and always shaping far more of your biology than the germ-theory version of microbes suggests.

He covers the microbiome's role in digestion, immune development and even mood, symbiosis in squid and coral, the surprising ecological engineering of gut bacteria in animals from cows to aphids, and the risks of a sanitised modern life that may be starving beneficial microbes out of existence.

A witty, thoroughly researched account that changes how you think about the boundary between self and other.
