Our beautiful world and its wonderful nature acquired their appearance only thanks to mushrooms, without which no ecosystem is unthinkable. Without them, there would be neither our forests, nor our climate, and, perhaps, life itself. Mushrooms are ubiquitous, and if used correctly, they can help us in unexpected ways. Mushrooms are partners, mushrooms are masters of waste disposal, mushrooms are a miracle medicine, mushrooms are a source of passion... The famous Austrian biologist and nature conservation specialist, author of more than 20 books, Robert Hofrichter, summarizing scientific data and his own professional and life experience, will tell in this a book about many things we still didn’t know about mushrooms. “I invite you to a fascinating and interesting journey into the world of Fungi, as mushrooms are scientifically called. Together we will listen to the long-forgotten whisper of forest mushrooms. Maybe we will be able to experience something that will allow us to expand the boundaries of our understanding of nature, to redefine them, because at the end of the journey, in any case, I really hope so, mushrooms will take a worthy place in your picture of the world, much more significant, than until now."
