The Life-Affirming, Mind-Bending Companion Audiobook to the Hit Documentary FANTASTIC FUNGI.

Viewed in over 100 countries and selling hundreds of thousands of tickets, Schwartzberg’s documentary Fantastic Fungi has brought the mycological revolution to the world stage. This is the film’s official companion audiobook, that expands on the documentary’s message: that mushrooms and fungi will change your life—and save the planet.

Paul Stamets, the world’s preeminent mushroom and fungi expert, is joined by leading ecologists, doctors, and explorers such as Michael Pollan, Dr. Andrew Weil, Eugenia Bone, Fantastic Fungi director Louie Schwartzberg, and many more. Together these luminaries show how fungi and mushrooms can restore the planet’s ecosystems, repair our physical health, and renew humanity’s symbiotic relationship with nature.

  • Join the Movement: Learn about the groundbreaking research that shows why mushrooms stand to provide a solution to environmental challenges, a viable alternative to traditional medicine, and a chance to radically shift consciousness.
  • Most Comprehensive Fungi book in the world: Admire the astounding, under appreciated beauty with over 400 gloriously-shot photographs of the mycelial world’s most rare and beautiful species in their natural environment.
  • World’s Leading Fungi Experts: Edited by preeminent mycologist Paul Stamets, who contributes original pieces, Fantastic Fungi includes original contributions by bestselling author and activist Michael Pollan, alternative medicine expert Dr. Andrew Weil, award-winning nature and food writer Eugenia Bone, Fantastic Fungi director Louie Schwartzberg, and so many more. The book’s roster of experts make this the most comprehensive survey of the diverse benefits and extraordinary potential of these amazing organisms.

Paul Stamets

Great easying listen with chapters being a short concise summary of individuals passionate encounter with the different aspects of mushrooms. An energetic general survey of humans interactions with the mushroom kingdom. I was attracted by the association of mushrooms and Mr Stamets with this book. Next on my list is this tv documentary.
