Review #1

Informative and Fun!

I've just begun reading this book. I've read the first 3 chapters of the third edition. I am enjoying it because it is clearly written. The scientific information is well explained. The explanations are illustrated when appropriate. Black and white as well as glossy color photos compliment the text.

The table of contents, bibliography, and photo/illustration credits are well organized and clear.

The author, Paul Stamets, is working with researchers on how mushrooms can address TB. You may want to look at the web site: [...] to learn more. Dr. Scott Fanzblau, I believe, is the head of lab for this research.




Review #2

A great book with a lot of detail to it...

There's a lot of pictures inside the book but the disappointing thing is they all 90% in black & white which keeps you guessing to what the mushrooms actually look like in colour! Shouldn't authors be more specific to their detail in pictures especially when there so many poisonous mushrooms out there in the wild?




Review #3

Mushrooms

I'm satisfied totally with my shopping experience for this book. It came when promised, and it was a new book, in great condition.
