Exploring the Tiny World that Shapes Our Lives
Author : Dr. P. Sasikumar
Translated by: M. Jothi Mani

This book is a rare gem that demystifies the complex world of microbes. It explains the subject matter
in simple prose, making it accessible to a wide audience, from children starting kindergarten to adults
with lacking formal academic knowledge.

It's truly remarkable how our six months of discussions have culminated in this book. On every page,
Sasikumar's research, readings, and discussions with experts in the field are evident, reflecting his
commitment to comprehending the intricacies of the microbial world and conveying them in such a
lucid manner.

I was pleasantly surprised to find that this book contains new information even for scientists like
myself who have spent considerable time in this field. I wholeheartedly express my gratitude for your
dedication and encourage you to continue your outstanding work in simplifying scientific concepts
and making them accessible to the common man.
