The queendom of fungi! I love that. I haven't been active, so this isn't an official vote, but I've heard Merlin Sheldrake interviewed and read his interview in Sun magazine and he's fascinating!

Yes, as much as I would love to re-read Radical Mycology (and explore its pages with fresh eyes) as it contains an impressive depth and breadth of scalable, DIY, decentralized applicable mycology information (and impressive scientific detail on morphology) there was something special about Entangled Life that invites one to open the mind in a different way so I am torn between which of those two I would enjoy re-reading and reviewing more at this point.

I was actually inspired by a musical creation of Merlin Sheldrake's brother (Cosmo) to write something that ended up in the Regenerative Short Stories and Recipes For Food For The Soul chapter in my book.

I also really appreciate their father's work on the morphogenic field, they are quite an interesting family those Sheldrakes.

Thanks for the comment and for sharing my friend.

What a charming video from Cosmo! I think that I mention Rupert somewhere in my episodes. Yes, what a family!
