His graceful writing style allows for him to convey the excitement and signficance of even the most technical aspects of Pasteur's work. Revised by distinguished microbiologist, Thomas D. Brock, the book includes a foreword by Pasteur scholar Gerald L. Geison from Princeton University that places the book in historical context.
