Description - Bacteria as Multicellular Organisms by James A. Shapiro

Contrary to popular wisdom, which treats bacteria as autonomous single cells, this book shows how bacteria are sentient, interactive organisms with an unexpectedly broad repertoire of chemical and physical mechanisms for signaling each other and organizing themselves into multicellular aggregates with novel properties.
