This is an amazing book, whether you are into mushrooms or not. The quality of the photos is stunning and the shapes, textures, colors of the mushrooms are a living dream.

The best book on fungi's photographies. 5 Stars

6 stars of 5. Isn't a botanical book. No keys, no descriptions of fungi, no introduction to families... just photos... fantastic photos. Many of the species shown inside are unidentified, but it doesn't matter.If you wanna make a gift to someone interested in fungi this is the book i'll recommend to you.
