Intrigued by the secret life of fungi, the author shows how fungi recycle most of the world's vegetable matter - from grass to trees, making way for other superior forms of nature. He also explains when and where to find mushrooms, how they are cultivated and how they are used in various cultures.
Part I Mushrooms and other fungi: mushrooms in our midst; the life history of the mushroom; umbrellas and other variations. Part II Collecting, in solitude and in groups: a foray in the woods; a walk on the lawn; mushrooms united. Part III Culinary tales: a matter of taste; white buttons, shiitake and other tamed species; truffles, stinkhorns and corn smut. Part IV A knigdom of versatile parts: mushrooms, the mind and the body; murder and more mushroom mayhem; the train wrecker and other sturdy mushrooms; insects as fungus gardeners. The biologist as mushroom hunter.
