About the edition

Bugs follows the organisms we live with, the medicines we use against them, and the possibilities of treating microbes as more than enemies.

From the microbiome to antibiotic resistance, this edition looks at the uneasy border between infection and treatment. Its subjects include phages, living therapeutics and the movement of microbes beyond Earth.

Part of Pharmakon: a publication on the political history of human chemistry.

A publication, not a supplement or a treatment.

Pharmakon

Pharmakon is an old Greek word that means remedy and poison at once. We prefer to separate the two. Chemistry never did.

A substance becomes medicine through dose, circumstance, belief, law and the hand that gives it. The same substance can heal, alter, sedate, stimulate or destroy. Its chemistry may remain unchanged while everything around it changes. Pharmakon follows those changes. We trace what humans have put into bodies, why they did it, who decided what was permitted, and what happened afterward.
