This science classic by Paul de Kruif chronicles the pioneering bacteriological work of the first scientists to see and learn from the microscopic world.

Paul de Kruif's Microbe Hunters is a timeless dramatization of the scientists, bacteriologists, doctors, and medical technicians who discovered microbes and invented the vaccines to counter them. De Kruif reveals the now seemingly simple but really fundamental discoveries of science - for instance, how a microbe was first viewed in a clear drop of rain water, and when, for the first time ever, Louis Pasteur discovered that a simple vaccine could save a man from the ravages of rabies by attacking the microbes that cause it.

This book is one of a kind. Those interested in a microbiological field are going to be listening for hours at a time.
Keep in mind that this book was written almost 100 years ago, so some of the language is dated. Truly a looking glass into the past minds of scientists.

Captivating!

I read this book when I was a teenager, it inspired me to work in science as a histology technician. Enjoyed the audible version, it brought back memories of my teenage excitement for science.

Read as a teenager.

I wish I had more teachers who could make you learn by telling a story such as the author. Great performance as sell.

The early chapters are still fairly fresh but as we get closer to the 20th century, the book shows its age. When he wrote this there were still no antibiotics and medicine was still at a point where they were celebrating arsenical compounds. There are some racist terms that were ok for 1926 but not appropriate for 2018 but I’m glad they were not edited out, to preserve the history, good or bad. Also need to remember that gay used to mean happy, since it is repeatedly used.

Somewhat dated
