sufficent, albeit with a penultimate ecofascist twist.

Brief, succinct, to the point, decently readable for the layperson, and has enough shallow history that it's not overwhelming. If you want a place to dip your toes into fungal history and study, this is a decent book.

I don't entirely recommend it as the author is a tad ecofascist. The ecofascism I mention is the author's sentiment that self genocide of the human species is laudable and necessary to save the earth from bad things humans do. Which is incorrect because it's capitalism and so forth that's destroying the earth. Humans aren't bad because we're human. This is brought up in the last two chapters of the book.
