FOLLOW YOUR GUT The Enormous Impact of Tiny Microbes

Microbiologist Rob Knight provides an unabashed and entertaining narration of his study of microbes—focusing on those in the large intestine. He narrates in a smooth and flowing style as he details the role of microbes in the health and diseases of all animals. His familiarity with the subject matter allows a narration that is serious but enthusiastic. He’s persuasive about the importance of the microbes in the gut but also injects humor into the sometimes-gross-sounding sampling procedures. Overall, this is a surprisingly fascinating look at the microscopic life in your gut. M.F. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award © AudioFile 2015, Portland, Maine [Published: MAY 2015]
