A stunning, authoritative book on the fungal kingdom, uncovering the hidden world of more than 300 global species Discover the fascinating stories behind 300 species of fungi and understand the world of mushrooms like never before! Did you know that fungi put the fizz in champagne and the flavor in chocolate? Fungi is everywhere we look in a forest, under the sea, and in the kitchen. In this beautiful book, leading fungal biologists Lynne Boddy and Ali Ashby bring you closer to 300 species of mushrooms and lichens through fascinating facts, mushroom datasets, and detailed illustrations. Discover some of the fastest speeds in nature, specimens that glow in the dark, and fungi that clean up oil spills. Humans have had a close relationship with mushrooms for thousands of years-from using the shiitake for healing, to telling stories of enchanted fairy rings, to cooking gourmet dishes with rare specimens. Bringing together technology, medicine, food, culture, and nature, this fascinating book will open your eyes to the wonders of the hidden kingdom all around us. With tips for mushroom spotting in any habitat, species identification notes, a grow-your-own guide, and more, this book is the ultimate fungi lover's companion., Their natural networks help plants live and grow; as medicine, they save lives; and in the kitchen, they put the fizz in champagne and the flavor in chocolate. But what are fungi? And how do they affect plants, animals, and humans? By feeding many animals and connecting plants, fungi are essential for ecosystems to thrive, playing a crucial role in maintaining life as we know it. With huge potential for use in everyday products and processes-in food, health, materials, and the environment-fungi are vital for a more sustainable future. Get closer to around 300 species of mushrooms, lichens, and other fungi, and find out the hidden secrets of mycelium. Expert information and beautiful illustrations reveal that fungi are present everywhere, from forests to deserts. Step inside the fascinating world of fungi to discover a kingdom that hides in plain sight.

They were doubled bagged in bubble wrap envelops, and arrived very quickly. The books are in excellent condition; better than I expected coming from a second hand. The package also included a print out of my order that detailed the quality and any appearance issues noted by the seller. Overall, this was a very informative and transparent transaction.
