Life, But Smaller and More Annoying: Meet the Tiny Things Running Everything

Microbiology is full of tiny organisms, complicated names, and an unreasonable amount of information to memorize. This book tries to make that slightly less painful.Life, But Smaller and More Annoying: Meet the Tiny Things Running Everything is an illustrated, adult-friendly introduction to the three domains of life: Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya.With colorful illustrations, absurd little microbial personalities, and explanations that do not sound like they were written by a committee, this book breaks down the basics of microbiology in a way that is easy to remember and actually fun to read.Inside, you'll meet: - bacteria that have been here longer than you and are not impressed- archaea happily surviving places that should probably be illegal- eukaryotic cells showing off their nuclei and organelles- microbial shapes, arrangements, habitats, and major differences- just enough science to help the information stick without turning the book into another textbookPerfect for microbiology students, healthcare students, science lovers, exhausted adults who are tired of flashcards, or anyone who enjoys learning while being mildly insulted by microscopic life.The microbes were here first. They will probably be here last. You may as well learn their names.
