INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER • “Merlin Sheldrake’s marvelous tour of these diverse and extraordinary life forms is eye-opening on why humans should consider fungi among the greatest of earth’s marvels. . . . Wondrous.”—Time A mind-bending journey into the hidden universe of fungi, “one of those rare books that can truly change the way you see the world around you” (Helen Macdonald, author of H Is for Hawk).NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY Time • BBC Science Focus • The Daily Mail • Geographical • The Times • The Telegraph • New Statesman • London Evening Standard • Science FridayWhen we think of fungi, we likely think of mushrooms. But mushrooms are only fruiting bodies, analogous to apples on a tree. Most fungi live out of sight, yet make up a massively diverse kingdom of organisms that supports and sustains nearly all living systems. Fungi provide a key to understanding the planet on which we live, and the ways we think, feel, and behave.In Entangled Life, the brilliant young biologist Merlin Sheldrake shows us the world from a fungal point of view, providing an exhilarating change of perspective. Sheldrake’s vivid exploration takes us from yeast to psychedelics, to the fungi that range for miles underground and are the largest organisms on the planet, to those that link plants together in complex networks known as the “Wood Wide Web,”  to those that infiltrate and manipulate insect bodies with devastating precision.Fungi throw our concepts of individuality and even intelligence into question. They are metabolic masters, earth makers, and key players in most of life’s processes. They can change our minds, heal our bodies, and even help us remediate environmental disaster. By examining fungi on their own terms, Sheldrake reveals how these extraordinary organisms—and our relationships with them—are changing our understanding of how life works.SHORTLISTED FOR THE BRITISH BOOK AWARD • LONGLISTED FOR THE RATHBONES FOLIO PRIZE“Entangled Life is a gorgeous book of literary nature writing in the tradition of [Robert] Macfarlane and John Fowles, ripe with insight and erudition. . . . Food for the soul.”—Eugenia Bone, Wall Street Journal“[An] ebullient and ambitious exploration . . . This book may not be a psychedelic—and unlike Sheldrake, I haven’t dared to consume my copy (yet)—but reading it left me not just moved but altered, eager to disseminate its message of what fungi can do.”—Jennifer Szalai, The New York Times

There is a tremendous amount of repetition in this book, in desperate need of an editor to tighten it up. What you learn will be repeated on the next page or the next chapter, and in one place I caught him writing the same paragraph twice in succession. I had to bail out of the chapter on the "wood wide web" of mycelial communication between plants, halfway through, as it said the same thing over and over and over and over.Sheldrake has admired a couple of Timothy-Leary-like psilocybin "magic mushroom" proponents his parents introduced him to as a child. He waxes poetical about the potential of psilocybin to cure some mental illness, to diminish the self, and to act as an entheogen, all without ever touching on the heartbreaking mental illnesses it has increased or caused. If you know a few 'shroom users well for long enough, you will encounter the dark side of psilocybin.Sheldrake also never seems to notice that entheogenic-induced changes in personality may themselves be mental illnesses, both of individuals and societies. Religion is not all good: just ask the Mayans, whose psilocybin-laced religion socialized ritual murder and prepared their society to be conquered. How much of religion do we owe to drug-addled visions, from ergot poisoning if not psilocybin use?There are many interesting insights in this book, but I would have welcomed a thorough editing job so that it would not have been so much work to pick the mycelium from the chaff.
