This book is fantastic! It's a textbook more than anything. I'm a scientist (but not biology) and it makes perfect sense. If you struggle with technical details he's got you covered, it's also pretty simple to follow his points. As I'm reading I start thinking "ok, so what about if you don't have that?" Or "so what is an agar medium anyway?" And literally the next section is devoted to my question. It's clear that the full picture is being laid out in a natural and easy to follow format. There's such a wealth of knowledge here! If you only take away the bullet points you'll still be able to put together a great mushroom patch. If you like to know the "why" behind things you do then it's all there. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to understand how the mushroom life cyle works and how to grow them in a plethora of methods.
