inspiring wonder

while it crafted a story that is rooted in fact and told a compelling story, the author relied to heavily on evoking a political response from the audience. I think this book was at its best when it stuck to the facts and gave you options to take action. as well as talking about the historical significance of mushrooms, I don't like when my mushrooms get politicized or used to push forward a political agenda. other than that, great book especially for the breadth of topics and knowledge it covers.

Great easying listen with chapters being a short concise summary of individuals passionate encounter with the different aspects of mushrooms. An energetic general survey of humans interactions with the mushroom kingdom. I was attracted by the association of mushrooms and Mr Stamets with this book. Next on my list is this tv documentary.

I wish I could rate it 10 stars

amazing, interesting, hope giving, ground breaking, spiritual, game changing, EVERY ONE PLEASE READ it. it will change the game for you

Delightfully Unaware..

While I’ve been a fan of Mr. Stamets for some time, I simply think his optimism falls flat. I agree wholeheartedly on almost every paragraph.. alas our species has no intention of diverting from our current path towards our own demise. The mushroom was here before.. it will be her long after.
