In a chapter called “Skin Safari,” Lyman gives a tour of the denizens of our skin. They range from the microscopic mites that wander around our faces at night, copulating, to the highly stable communities of microorganisms that live on the different regions of our bodies, each with its own unique environmental conditions. “At first glance, our skin looks like a bare, inhospitable landscape,” Lyman writes. In fact, for critters that are small enough, it’s full of ridges and canyons and deserts and swamps: “Habitats filled with wildlife worthy of a nature documentary. ” These habitats are affected, in turn, by our own environmental conditions. In one study, scientists could tell, just by examining people’s skin microbiome, what city they lived in and with whom they cohabitated.
