Did you know that we are surrounded by monsters that we can’t see? They are the microscopic creatures that populate nearly every habitat on Earth, and they exist in numbers that would astound us. In this book, examine close-up pictures of the tiny, living things that are all around us, and that most of us have never even guessed are there.

What we can easily see all around us is only a fraction of what is really there. The microscopic world in and on animals, plants, the ground we walk on, and even our own bodies is full of tiny things that are scary, mysterious and amazingly strange.
