The New Yorker Book Review: The Secret Lives of Fungi

Advance praise for Entangled Life 

“A dazzling, vibrant, vision-changing book. Sentence after sentence stopped me short. This is a remarkable work by a remarkable writer, which succeeds in springing life into strangeness again.” —Robert Macfarlane, author of Underland

“True to his name, Merlin takes us on a magical journey deep into the roots of Nature. Merlin is an expert storyteller, weaving the tale of our co-evolution with fungi into a scientific adventure. Entangled Life is a must read.” —Paul Stamets, author of Mycelium Running

“This book is as hard to put down as a thrilling detective novel, and one of the best works of popular science writing that I have enjoyed in years. Sheldrake has a gift of explaining very complex concepts and serving it all up in such an engaging way that the reader forgets that they are not supposed to understand this stuff.” —Dennis McKenna, author (with Terence McKenna) of Psilocybin: Magic Mushroom Grower’s Guide

“This engaging book shines light on the hidden fungal connections that link plants, trees, and us. I thought I knew a lot about fungi, but I found much that was new to me, and exciting. Sheldrake is a rare scientist who is not afraid to speculate about the truly profound implications of his work. A very good read.” —Andrew Weil, author of Spontaneous Healing
