This was a strangely compelling read and I highly recommend it for anyone to add to their nonfiction November reading list! Who knew that mushrooms were so tasty and fascinating?!? Lean into learning about the politics and history of mushrooms and then get really meta and eat mushrooms whilst reading about them! All joking aside, this was a fascinating read that I thoroughly enjoyed!
Thank you for the advanced copy. I walk in a wood every morning with all different types of fungi and find them absolutely fascinating.
This book amazed me, I knew of different groups on the Internet but didn't have a clue as to how deep it went. I found myself thinking almost immediately can fungi be used to help change how fragile we have made the planet? Starvation being one example.
Well written, covered everything concerning the topic and more. This morning I didn't just see the fungi as different textures and shapes but look at the in a whole different way.
Highly recommended
I did not know there was so much political, mythological and historical content relating to mushrooms, not to mention the groups involved. A very comprehensive book, that gives an insight into all these things, and more besides.
