 We are at the dawn of a new scientific revolution. Our understanding of how to treat and prevent diseases has been transformed by knowledge of the microbiome—the rich ecosystem of microorganisms that is in and on every human. In *Gut Feelings*, Alessio Fasano and Susie Flaherty show why these microbial hitchhikers may hold the keys to human health.
