Pressezitat
"This volume covers a number of aspects on food and medicinal mushrooms of great topical interest. ... The volume is at first glance a mix of information that sometimes deviates from the main topic that readers may expect from the title of the entire volume, but can be a useful source of information especially for general readers and students." (Giuseppe Venturella, The Quarterly Review of Biology, Vol. 99 (1), March, 2024)
