520 "When we think of fungi, we likely think of mushrooms. But
mushrooms are only fruiting bodies, analogous to apples on
a tree. Most fungi live out of sight yet make up a
massively diverse kingdom of organisms that supports and
sustains nearly all living systems. Fungi provide a key to
understanding the planet on which we live, and the ways we
think, feel, and behave. In the first edition of the mind
-bending, "gorgeous" (Margaret Atwood), "brilliant [and]
entrancing" (The Guardian) Entangled Life, Sheldrake
introduced us to this mysterious but massively diverse
kingdom of life. This new edition, abridged from the
original, features over 100 full-color images that bring
the spectacular variety, strangeness and beauty of fungi
to life as never before. Fungi throw our concepts of
individuality and even intelligence into question. They
are metabolic masters, earth makers, and key players in
most of life's processes. They can change our minds, heal
our bodies, and even help us remediate environmental
disaster. In vivid, surprising images, Sheldrake reveals
how these extraordinary organisms--and our relationships
with them--are changing our understanding of how life
works."--|cAmazon.
