Review:

For those who already enjoy eating fungi, Medicinal Mushroms will answer your questions and deepen your appreciation of mushrooms. -- Herb Companion, 1996.

Mushroom toxicity, uses in traditional medicine, and appearances in the human diet are supported by clinical studies and explorations of cultural influences in this technical coverage. Over 100 species of edible fungi are documented in the most complete work on medicinal mushrooms published to date. -- Midwest Book Review

The wealth of information gleaned from excellent sources make this book a valuable addition to professional and amateur mushroom library. -- SIDA 17(1):250. 1996
