Biografía del autor
Extracto. © Reimpreso con autorización. Reservados todos los derechos.
Mushrooms have never ceased to amaze me. The more I study them, the more I realize how little I have known, and how much more there is to learn. For thousands of years, fungi have evoked a host of responses from people—from fear and loathing to reverent adulation. And I am no exception.
When I was a little boy, wild mushrooms were looked upon with foreboding. It was not as if my parents were afraid of them, but our Irish heritage lacked a tradition of teaching children anything nice about mushrooms. In this peculiar climate of ignorance, rains fell and mushrooms magically sprang forth, wilted in the sun, rotted, and vanished without a trace. Given the scare stories told about “experts” dying after eating wild mushrooms, my family gave me the best advice they could: Stay away from all mushrooms, except those bought in the store. Naturally rebellious, I took this admonition as a challenge, a call to arms, firing up an already overactive imagination in a boy hungry for excitement.
When we were seven, my twin brother and I made a startling mycological discovery—Puffballs! We were told that they were not poisonous but if the spores got into our eyes, we would be instantly blinded! This information was quickly put to good use. We would viciously assault each other with mature puffballs, which would burst upon impact and emit a cloud of brown spores. The battle would continue until all the puffballs in sight had been hurled. They provided us with hours of delight over the years. Neither one of us ever went blind—although we both suffer from very poor eyesight. You must realize that to a seven-year-old these free, ready-made missiles satisfied instincts for warfare on the most primal of levels. This is my earliest memory of mushrooms, and to this day I consider it to be a positive emotional experience. (Although I admit a psychiatrist might like to explore these feelings in greater detail.)
Not until I became a teenager did my hunter-gatherer instincts resurface, when a relative returned from extensive travels in South America. With a twinkle in his eyes, he spoke of his experiences with the sacred Psilocybe mushrooms. I immediately set out to find these species, not in the jungles of Colombia, but in the fields and forests of Washington State where they were rumored to grow. For the first several years, my searches provided me with an abundance of excellent edible species, but no Psilocybes. Nevertheless, I was hooked.
When hiking through the mountains, I encountered so many mushrooms. Each was a mystery until I could match them with descriptions in a field guide. I soon came to learn that a mushroom was described as “edible,” “poisonous,” or my favorite, “unknown,” based on the experiences of others like me, who boldly ingested them. People are rarely neutral in their opinion about mushrooms—either they love them or they hate them. I took delight in striking fear into the hearts of the latter group, whose illogical distrust of fungi provoked my overactive imagination.
When I enrolled in the Evergreen State College in 1975, my skills at mushroom identification earned the support of a professor with similar interests. My initial interest was taxonomy, and I soon focused on fungal microscopy. The scanning electron microscope revealed new worlds, dimensional landscapes I never dreamed possible. As my interest grew, the need for fresh material year-round became essential. Naturally, these needs were aptly met by learning cultivation techniques, first in petri dishes, then on grain, and eventually on a wide variety of materials. In the quest for fresh specimens, I had embarked upon an irrevocable path that would steer my life on its current odyssey.

Calificado en Estados Unidos el 25 de marzo de 2013I really love this book. I knew nothing about mushrooms and I wanted to learn how to grow them at home for use in cooking. We use tons of mushrooms in my house...we love 'em. This is not a full color, step by step guide to starting a little mushroom log. This is more of a text book....though a very entertaining textbook...the writing is not completely dry, which was refreshing. It was a little intimidating at first. It definitely deals with things on at least a farm sized scale and easily on an industrial scale.
There is however a wealth of useful information that can be gleaned from this book about. For instance:
-- Temperature for mycelium run of a particular species
-- temperature to initiate fruiting at
-- humidity to hold the room at
-- substrata to use for the different species
-- different ways to sterilize substrata
-- how to take a spore print
-- how to inoculate substrata
-- Basic principles of farming mushrooms
-- how to assess your environment and practices to improve your sterility controls

I am no science wiz, but I am curious and daring. For the amateur scientist who likes to take their hobbies a little to seriously sometimes, this is the uber book of mushroom cultivation. For the strict beginner that needs to be walked through things slowly and methodically...or just doesn't want all the scientific mumbo-jumbo, this could be an information overload that will frustrate you. If you're ready to do some additional research to figure out how to scale things down and where to find alternative equipment that doesn't cost tens of thousands of dollars, this book will be great for you. I dream of a corner of my basement set up as a clean room for culturing spores and tissue from plants.

Calificado en Estados Unidos el 8 de noviembre de 2021Quality of the book is very apparent! Words are not too small, it's easy to read. Have skimmed a few chapters already and I look forward to reading it. I love gathering info on topics that interest me. This book makes me want to learn about other aspects of mushroom growing I never considered. Will be a great gift for my hubs, too, who is also interested in mushroom growing.
After some reading of reveiws, I purchased two books on the topic: Organic Mushroom Farming & Mycoremediation AND Growinf Gourmet & Medicinal Mushrooms. I would say the same about both books from what I've read so far.
I have a background in Biology, science, and lots of experience in just learning new hobbies or needy things, etc. My husband does not. Both books are perfect for either background and easy to learn and incorporate into your own needs/experience. Glad I choose both.

Calificado en Estados Unidos el 18 de abril de 2025Greta resource overall.
Wish the whole book was in color. I opted for the spiral bound version (the most expressive option) , and I was disappointed to find most of the pictures in the book are in black and white and low resolution.
The low quality on the photo prints makes it hard to tell what’s happening in the pictures.

Calificado en Estados Unidos el 29 de julio de 2024I’m interested in learning how to grow mushrooms for my own food. This is a bit daunting for me but you can’t beat the information in this book.

Calificado en Estados Unidos el 22 de enero de 2023I'm a collector of books and in my mountainous mycology library, this is the reference text I keep reaching for, and my most valuable by far. Paul Stamets (and David Arora, for me) has inspired so many to step out into the woods and discover the magical world of mushrooms. I am quite convinced that Stamets is actually a mushroom in human form, as he has taken his love of mycology to a next level understanding. Equal parts reader-friendly and science-based, this book expands on and deepens the readers knowledge on well-known concepts, but delves into entirely new realms of practical usage of mycology from culinary to home and commercial cultivation to bioremediation. Can mushrooms save the planet? Paul Stamets thinks so, and I believe him.

BlackFlameDragonCalificado en México el 24 de septiembre de 20245.0 de 5 estrellas Excelente
Un libro publicado hace 20 años pero no por eso deja de ser la biblia de cultivo de hongos con información detallada escrito por uno de los grandes expertos del mundo.
Quizá para los principiantes sea una lectura un poco pesada por sus tecnicismos, pero en esta época donde el internet facilita el encontrar información, nada que un poco de investigación no pueda resolver.

Aaron sumCalificado en Singapur el 23 de febrero de 20235.0 de 5 estrellas Good and informative book, but delivery can be improved
The book is super informative and I learnt many things not covered in YouTube.
The book should be updated to continue to reflect some of the newest species of mushrooms cultivated.
However the delivery left something to be desired as the book arrived a little dinged up
