Will I love Never Home Alone?

The air we breathe and the water we drink are wild with microbes! This book tells amazing true tales about the personal microbes in our home, and how a space station lacked important microbes because no astronaut was female.

I love how some experiments failed the first time, but then revealed amazing finds. The same epidemiology that showed the cause of cholera now reveals “diseases of absence” of the microbes we need to protect us from asthma and food allergies. And our best drinking water contains microscopic crustaceans.

I learned so much about our body’s live-in microbes.
