LITTLE MONSTERS

Anne A. Madden

The True Adventures of a Microbe Wrangler

Madden's passion, conviction and imagination bring the microbial world to life in Technicolor.

War and Peace inside a Petri Dish. Journeys to the Amazon and deep inside the dust bunnies beneath your couch are equally compelling in this intrepid microbe wrangler's hands. Come for the science, stay for the writing. Madden is as comfortable with a pop culture reference as an apt simile and gorgeous metaphor to make visible the invisible world. And the message couldn't be more urgent or hopeful: these billions of microbes might just save our lives.
