Presents the myriad ways in which microorganisms influence the biosphere. Focusing on how all microorganisms relate to each other just as all higher organisms relate to all other animate and inanimate objects on Earth, this new resource explores all aspects of microbiology from mycology to the simplest biological entities of all, viruses, to prions, which are even more streamlined than viruses and just as dangerous.
