The book of the intertwined life will take you to the neglected and miraculous world of mushrooms and will show you that they represent the key to understanding not only the planet we live on, but also to life itself. Go on a pilgrimage that will change you to be unrecognizable.
The more we know about mushrooms, the less it makes sense without them.
Nor is it to be plants or animals. They grow through the soil, fly in the air and live in our body. They range from microscopic creatures to the largest known organisms in the world. They stood at the birth of life on land, can survive in open space and revel in radioactive radiation. And actually a greater or lesser extent depends on all life on the ground.
They are organisms that continue to surprise us. Although they do not have a brain, but with shocking accuracy they can solve problems and influence the behavior of animals. Through bread, alcohol and life -saving drugs, they have been indelibly influenced on the form of human culture, and recent research has confirmed that their psychoactive qualities are relieved from a number of mental problems. On their ability to decompose plastics, explosives, pesticides and raw oil they build the latest breakthrough technologies and the discovery that they connect plants to underground networks - "forest internet" - reversing our understanding of ecosystems. Yet more than ninety percent of mushroom types have not yet been documented.
