Russian Life says, “A timely book given current scientific debates, renewed interest in probiotics, and worry over the declining effectiveness of antibiotics.”
Booklist says Immunity author Luba Vikhanski's "meticulous account of this almost-forgotten scientist reminds us of just how important a role obsession and stubborness play in research."
Kirkus calls Immunity "a portrait that captures not only the man, but also the end-of-the-19th-century dynamism that fostered revolutions in art, politics, and science."
