Summary: Amazing Mushroom Guide
Comment: Stamets clearly and concisely lays out how to cultivate many different types of mushrooms. He starts out with technique and cultivation types, and then goes into the different types of mushrooms. Stamets goes into detail about the vocabulary used to describe mushroom biology. I think he covers the different mushrooms extensively. The book is easy to follow along with. I highly recommend this book if you are interested in growing your own mushrooms.

Summary: Superb
Comment: The title says it all. This is regarded as an invaluable resource for anyone with an interest in raising mushrooms (on any scale), and I can only agree. This book is meant on some level to complement The Mushroom Cultivator, which is referenced occasionally. For example when discussing pests and contaminants, only the vectors and generalities are discussed; the reader is directed to The Mushroom Cultivator for in depth coverage. That's my next purchase after a trial run with growing some enokitakes.
Customer Rating:
Summary: A total must have for the serious mushroom enthusiast.
Comment: This book is definitely not a beginners book, but The Mushroom Cultivator is. This book would be step two in your mycological life goal because it focuses more on the advanced techniques and an industrial approach growing mushrooms. I would recommend this book and every other book by Paul Stamets no questions asked.
