In Never Home Alone, biologist Rob Dunn takes us to the edge of
biology's latest frontier: our own homes. Every house is a
wilderness -- from the Egyptian meal moths in our kitchen cupboards
and the yeast in a sourdough starter, to the camel crickets living
in the basement, to the thousands of species of insects, bacteria,
fungi, and plants live literally under our noses. Our reaction, too
often, is to sterilise.As we do, we unwittingly cultivate an
entirely new playground for evolution. Unfortunately, this means
that we have created a range of new parasites, from
antibiotic-resistant microbes to nearly impossible to kill
cockroaches, to threaten ourselves with and destroyed helpful
housemates. If we're not careful, the ",healthier", we try to make
our homes, the more likely we'll be putting our own health at
risk.A rich natural history and a thrilling scientific
investigation, Never Home Alone shows us that if are to truly
thrive in our homes, we must learn to welcome the unknown guests
that have been there the whole time.
