One of the more interesting best-sellers of recent years in Europe has been Giulia Enders' book on the Gut: Gut: The Inside Story of Our Body's Most Underrated Organ

She is a Phd student in gastroenterology, who has completed her medical degree in Germany. She won a Science Slam competition & it led to her writing a book on the gut. It has now sold 1 million copies in Germany, 400 000 in France and has been translated into English
About half the book looks specifically at the gut biome covering current research in a very readable fashion. I got a copy from my local library after reading positive reviews in the British press. The English translation by David Shaw is nicely done too.
Below is an interview with Giulia on the Agenda with Steve Perkins which gives you a flavour on the book (20:42)
