Microworld

The wealth of nature is truly astonishing as millions upon millions of organisms inhabit the Earth. Some of these you know because you see them in your daily life, but others exist which are invisible to the naked eye yet are all around you. The discovery of the microscope revealed the inhabitants of a world never seen before. This attractively illustrated book shows the organisms living in your home, in furniture and in the air, as well as on your skin and in your body. Some of the artistic illustrations can be studied with 3D glasses, bringing within reach these miniscule organisms we share our lives with. Some of these look as if they could feature as fearsome monsters in a cartoon, but there’s no need to worry as most of them are harmless or are not a threat to people. Open the book and investigate the world of mysterious microbes for yourself
