Written in dialog form, Gerhard Gottschalk's book provides surprising insights into the amazing world of bacteria. These microorganisms have changed the Earth more than any other life form and turned it into an inhabitable planet.

But bacteria also have their negative aspects: they cause illnesses and produce the strongest toxins known to mankind.
