The world is a treasure chest of mushrooms. There are over 1.5 million known species of mushrooms on our planet. We use them for food and medicine, they can be found in all ecosystems and on all continents, and they are even closer to animals than plants. They can also be as deadly as they are beautiful.

Discover the scientific, cultural, and fantastical properties of mushrooms and explore their world beyond what is found in a kitchen, from a waxcap ballerina and Barbie pagodas to a snowy disco and stinkhorns.

This book celebrates their beauty, complexity, and significance, offering a glimpse into this fascinating kingdom of fungi.
