Further reading on microbial diversity?

Books or articles about microbial diversity for the non-specialist? I was fascinated when I read this article a couple of years back. What books, articles or papers covering similar ground (that would be intelligible to a curious layman) can you recommend regarding microbial genetic diversity, taxonomy, & the discovery of micro-organisms in extreme environments, etc.
Best answer: The equivalent of 240 billion African elephants hiding in the ocean.

Response by poster: Thank you both! I'm still hoping there's some other stuff out there I've missed, or perhaps a book or two still being written on these topics...
