Entangled Life

"This was an excellent and fascinating read on the unseen and amazing role fungi plays in our entire ecosystem and even our bodies. The book even takes us on an evolutionary journey of their place in our world from ancient times to the present, with many interesting and amusing stories interspersed. The author is also a research scientist in this field, so has many of his own stories."
