A Plague of Boils: How a Germ Everyone Has on Their Skin Every Day Nearly Killed Me
Dave Dumanis
ASIN: B0081IOO3W
Publisher: Amazon.com Services LLC
Pages: 102

In 2010, writer, dad, and skeptic Dave Dumanis developed an innocent-looking itchy spot on his leg. The resulting complications put him in the emergency room twice and nearly killed him. The weirdest part: the culprit (twice lab-tested) was found to be garden-variety "staph," an ostensibly harmless microbe found virtually everywhere. This darkly entertaining saga covers Dave's travels from doctor to specialist to ER to alternative practitioner; his research into the coldly important role microbes play in our lives, and his changed worldview as a result of nearly kicking the bucket at a relatively young 48.
