An interesting book which adds another dimension to any fungus-fanatic's library. Shop around prior to purchase.
A very interesting book which adds another dimension to any fungus-fanatic's library. Glad I bought it but I'm a little vexed that it cost more than a friend paid for the same book, after I ordered mine, from 'elsewhere', I should have checked first. To compound things, their copy arrived the next day, a week before mine arrived! I would recommend this book for anyone interested in this subject, but shop around first.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
