Planet of microbes: the perils and potential of Earth's essential life forms

Out of the air: searching for life's origin. Lightning in the lab

The instigator

In the hot vents with RNA

Return of the ancient ones

Shooting stars

Turning the tide: seeking better health. Killer membranes: the labs where life is made

Relics of the deep: future from the past

In the garden: microbes, power, and health

Lost city: at the alkaline seeps

Moonlight: symbiosis, the squid, and a new science

Microbes and money: a sustainable future. The universe within: the new microbial medicine

Martian chronicles: killer microbes from outer space

Sustainability: toward a microbe economy

A river runs through it: the hope and hype of microbes.
