Home / Store / Books / Mycelium Running How Mushrooms Can Help Save the World
by Paul Stamets
Published by Ten Speed Press
$35.00
An introduction to the bioremediation potential of mushrooms with a far-reaching scope, Stamets passionately lays out how mycelial networks nourish our ecosystems and break down toxins both inside and outside our bodies. Did you know mycelial pathways can work symbioticlly with other plants to redirect nutrients to where they're needed most? Or that mushrooms can be used to process the huge amounts of septic sludge generated by factory farming? I didn't either until I read Mycelium Running, a truly eye-opening book that makes deep connections about ecological cycles of rot and regrowth. Important, digestible, home-grown- I'm pretty sure this hippie science is onto something. -EF
