Very intersting read that confirmed my fascination for mushrooms. I didn't read it entirely though, as most chapters are guidelines for growing mushrooms and I don't currently have the kind of space that this experiment requires.

Interesting. The later portion of the book has a lot of "how to" information that didn't hold my attention, but would be great for people wanting to use mushrooms for any variety of purposes.

This book is really amazing. Your mind will be blown when you learn about all the things that mushrooms can do. That said, the book really opens a window into just how little research has been done into the subject of mycelia. Based on my conversations with others who have this book, I'd say that we wish it had a bit more "how-to" information.

I can’t believe I finished this chonky book. First part is a good nonfiction piece about all the amazing things fungi can do. It has enlightened me about how fungi can clean up heavy metals and pollution. The latter half is a guide to fungi. This can be used just as reference as needed.

A lot of interesting information about mushrooms mixed with some wild speculation and anthropomorphicism.
