The Autobiography of Félix d'Hérelle (in French as well, hopefully soon in English) . The Wanderings of a Bacteriologist. 2017, Lavoisier Paris.
Félix D'Hérelle (1873-1949) had a fascinating life full of brilliant ideas, travels around the world, and encounters with illustrious figures. In 1917, he revealed the principle of bacteriophagy and the existence of bacteriophages. With his student, Guiorgui Eliava, he created an institute in the 1920s in Tbilisi, the capital of Georgia (then part of the Soviet Union), now called the Eliava Institute to study bacteriophages and develop phage therapy. Today, patients from all over the world go to this same institute for treatment. This book is a page-turner.
