Introduction: the germ theory versus my mom's theory
Germinology: know your enemy
Germ roots and germ routes: where they come from, where they go, and how they get from here to there
Plagued: a glossary of diseases
Homeland security: our natural defenses against germ invasions
Germinators: antibiotics as miracle and menace
Germinators ii: antivirals, antifungals, anti-parasitics
Vaccine verisimilitude: venerated, vilified, vindicated
Over-the-counter or over-the-top: symptom relief
Sanitary sanity: personal, household, and community hygiene
From the fridge to the fringe: nutrition and nutritional supplements
Miscellaneous momisms: sleep, stress, weather, wardrobe, exercise, and everything else
Prudent paranoia: common sense.
