Mushrooms, the first of a major new series of books on British
natural history, provides a remarkable insight into the natural and
human world of fungi. Peter Marren, in his inimitable, relaxed
style, guides the reader through the extraordinary riches of this
often overlooked group, from the amazing diversity of forms and
lifestyles that populate the fungal landscape, to the pursuit of
edible fungi for the pot, and the complexities of identification
thrown up by our modern understanding of DNA. Throughout the book,
the author tells a story rich in detail about how we have come to
appreciate and, in some cases, fear the mushrooms and toadstools
that are such an integral part of the changing seasons. Marren also
provides a refreshingly candid view of our attempts to name
species, the role of fungi in ecosystems, and our recent efforts to
record and conserve them.
