Hidden Beauty of the Microscopic World
What the tiniest forms of life can tell us about existence and our place in the universe
«“ The copious images in this companion guide are no less enchanting, and Weiss’ text fills in the background that the author can’t always cover in his 10-minute YouTube episodes. . . . This approachable guide to another universe, as close as the nearest microscope, should appeal to general readers."
— Alan Moores, Booklist»
A strange and beautiful world surrounds us,
hidden from sight ...
An unbelievable abundance of life flourishes on every surface of our planet.
In every drop of dew, on every leaf, and even inside each one of us, invisible
yet ingenious life thrives.
