Microcosm: E. coli and the New Science of Life by Carl Zimmer. E. coli has played a huge role in how we understand life at the molecular level. This book is written for beginners and non-scientists so its pretty palatable for people not in the field.

What kind of books do you like? Something with a narrative or something that's more like a text book? Something that fits in between is a short read called " Microcosm: E.coli and the New Science of Life
My favorite book is "The Hot Zone" though. It's more of a page-turner, but some information in it is dramatized and it's more about the story than the organism. It depends what you're looking for. Another good book is "Spillover: Animal Infections and the Next Human Pandemic" It's a bit of a slower read, but it's a good read that focuses more on diseases while having good stories
Microcosm is an awesome book for this: http://www.amazon.com/Microcosm-Coli-Science-Vintage/dp/0307276864
