SAL/On Air Podcast

Ed Yong

Ed Yong’s bestselling first book, “I Contain Multitudes,” prompted us to look at ourselves and the microbes we contain as the interconnected, interdependent systems that we are. And his follow-up, “An Immense World,” was named one of the best books of the year by numerous publications while opening our eyes to the glorious world right before us. Yong visited SAL virtually in 2022, when microbes were in the news every day and the onslaught of new information overwhelmed, and his talk on the nature of journalism did a world of good.
