From the reviews:"The book is arranged in 15 chapters ... and has 41 coauthors and 4 editors. ... The book is well laid out with ... illustrations. All chapters are well referenced at the back. ... This book certainly has the correct title and should be of interest to those interested in agriculture, ecology and mycology. ... should be available in all good school, community and university libraries and any research laboratories dealing with agriculture or mycorrhizal research."­­­ (K.
