The more we learn about fungi, the less makes sense without them. They can change our minds, heal our bodies and even help us avoid environmental disaster; they are metabolic masters, earth-makers and key players in most of nature's processes. In Entangled Life, Merlin Sheldrake takes us on a mind-altering journey into their spectacular world, and reveals how these extraordinary organisms transform our understanding of our planet and life itself.

Mind Blowing

It is hard to believe that something so embedded in life on earth is something so mysterious! I have lived on this earth 26 years and did not know almost anything this book discussed. It was an amazing book, and a bite sized introduction into mycology. Loved it!

Beautiful and thought provoking

I knew mushrooms are fascinating, but this book managed to fill me with awe. Sheldrake beautifully describes how fundamental these overlooked beings are for all life on the planet. If you have any passing interest for biology, ecology, plants or fungi, this is a must read.
