Fungi introduces you to 75 fascinating fungi from around the world.
Fungi is a richly detailed and beautifully illustrated book which tells you everything you need to know about these fasciating organisms.

Fungi are an indispensable part of the great chain of life: more than 90% of the world’s plant species depend on them for their nutrition. There are believed to be about 1.5 million species, thriving in virtually every habitat, from temperate to tropical, Antarctic to marine.

Using beautifully coloured illustrations, this book dips into the whole range, showcasing the unusual, the familiar, the poisonous and the delicious, and sharing the stories of puffballs, deadly webcaps and devils’ fingers, among others.

Some are cultivated for use in different cuisines, while others are heralded for their hallucinogenic properties, or valued for use in medicine. Essential information on distribution, uses and growth partnerships is included for each species featured, as well as stunning.

Weird, alluring and mysterious - get to know what makes mushrooms magic in this handy, colourful book.
