Four years ago, I picked up this book while killing time at a bookstore between classes. It changed the course of my life: I discovered science writing.

Michael Pollan (who I had the pleasure of meeting last year, and he complimented my tattoo!!) is an excellent writer.
After The Botany of Desire, I was hooked. I wanted as much popsci and nature writing as I could get my hands on.

I picked up this one next, and became enchanted with science and research through Hope Jahren's incredible memoir of the lab.
After that, fully initiated in popsci, I stumbled onto Ed Yong's masterful exploration of microbes. It was so powerfully captivating that my curiosity for microbiology grew tenfold.

I started to seriously consider changing my major from English to micro. And then I met Ed Yong!
