Friend of fungus

5 June 1999

George Hudler is clearly in love with his subject. In Magical Mushrooms,
Mischievous Molds he translates his fascination for all things fungal into a
joyful and intelligent read. All manner of life is in here and even people who
normally shun biology should find it difficult to resist. Princeton University
Press, £22.95/$29.95, ISBN 0691028737.
