Product info

Take a deep dive into the magical and mysterious world of mycology in The Future Is Fungi. A complete guide to the hidden kingdom of mushrooms, this book explores the important place that fungi hold in our ecosystems, the many ways they have improved our daily lives and their potential to solve the societal, ecological and spiritual problems of the future. If you’re new to fungi, fear not — this book starts with a fascinating introductory chapter that breaks down what exactly fungi are and the essential role they play in the natural world. Following this are four captivating chapters that each investigate fungi’s impact on a different area of our lives — food, medicine, psychedelics and mental health and environmental remediation. Interspersed throughout, you’ll also find informative profiles on eighteen mushroom species, which are illustrated with stunning three-dimensional digital art and paired with details on their history and mythology as well as their medicinal and culinary uses. Also included are practical guides on everything from how to forage and how to cultivate your own mushrooms to tips for creating your own supplements and what to expect on a psychedelic journey. Enlightening yet accessible, The Future Is Fungi is an open invitation into a deeper relationship with the natural world, each other and one’s self — and one that you do not want to miss.
