Product Description

Review

“It is the best textbook available for a comprehensive view of the fungi and their importance to the human condition.”
Robert Roberson, Arizona State University <!––end––>

"...fully updated and expanded, and can still (or even better now) serve as an excellent textbook for students."
Persoonia, June 2006

"My very positive impression of this book has prompted me to prescribe it as the text for the undergraduate mycology paper at the University of Otago. I think the book will inspire students by giving them an appreciation of the wide scope of experimental mycology, and I would thoroughly recommend it to readers who want a thorough expose of the wonderful world of fungi."
New Zealand Journal of Botany

Fungal Biology 28 Sep 2010

When I purchased this item I read that it was going to be a fast delivery but it took longer than I excpected. Other than the delay in delivery the book arrived fast and I started to read because I had a test coming up.
