This book should be on public and school library shelves and in places where there is research in microbiology(Reference Reviews, 1 December 2012) Useful for lay readers curious about bacteria and bacterial activities. Summing Up: Recommended. General audiences, high school students, and lower-level undergraduates. (Choice, 1 July 2012) Overall, I would confidently recommend this book to anyone with even a vague interest in bateria. (Phenotype, 28 May 2012) Bacteria are fascinating little creatures that are deserving of the stories contained within Bacteria: The Benign, the Bad, and the Beautiful. The reader's viewpoint may very well change after hearing them. (New York Journal of Books, 13 December 2011)
