Okay, this is the3 Mushroom hunting forum here adn identification scenter for shroomers worldwide. I decided to post this article here because if i put it inthe literature forum it will get buried by the music and rock threads.
Since it pertains to mushroom ID i feel it is proper here for those intereted in the iding of psilocybian mushrooms.
This article is fromthe Czeck Mycol vol50(1):71-72/.
It also appeared in English and italian int he Italian Journal Eleusis vol 6 page 46, in December of 1996. The same year as the book appeared in print.
Here is that review .

Here is another review: Stamets tends to be gimicky (potency value chart based on questionable chemical analysis), often factually inaccurate or incorrect, but has good pictures.

YEs blue Meanie, as I have noted before those exact reasons about the book, it also contains many errors and a few incorerect identifications. One example is my mushroom Psilocybe samuiensis Guzm?n, Bandala and Allen which paul listed as Psilocybe samuiensis Guzm?n, Allen and Merlin.
Currently paul is working on a part two for his book.
