Allies and Enemies: How the World Depends on Bacteria by Anne E. Maczulak
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book was free when I downloaded it to my Nook library on June 15, 2012.
Maczulak writes so this subject holds the attention for a general interest reader.  I learned a lot of information that has occurred since I studied microbiology 42 years ago such as DNA can be used to identify the source of a bacterial contaminant and rule out others.
I recommend it to readers of non-fiction with an interest in this area. Others may struggle with the names assigned to the bacteria.
