| 520 | . | ‡a"You are just 10% human. For every one of the cells that make up your body, there are nine impostor cells. You are not just flesh and blood, muscle and bone, brain and skin, but also bacteria and fungi. You are not an individual but a colony. Alanna Collen draws on the latest scientific research to show how our personal colony of microbes influences our weight, our immune system, our mental health, and even our choice of partner. Many of the questions about modern diseases left unanswered by the Human Genome Project are illuminated by this new science. And the good news is that unlike our human cells, we can change our microbes for the better."-- ‡cProvided by publisher. | |
