| Edible Wild Mushrooms of North America and Mushrooms of Northeastern North America |
co-authored Dave Fischer |
"This is not simply another mushroom field guide... People hesitant in mycophagy [mushroom gathering
and eating] will find confidence in their abilities by using this book... it should become the most
popular field guide on the market---a fixture in everyone's basket." --Barry L. Wulff, Professor
Emeritus of Biology, Eastern Connecticut State University

| Mushrooms Of Northeastern North America |
co-authored by Dave Fischer |
This encyclopedic new volume, including nearly 1500 species and 650 color
photographs, illustrates the diversity of mycoflora throughout Northeastern
North America. Professional and advanced mycologists will welcome the inclusion
of microscopic features, chemical reagent data, information on classification,
and author citations. The user-friendly keys and non technical language will
appeal to the novice mushroom collector, as will the introductory information
on fungal anatomy, collecting techniques, and mushroom cooking and preservation.
Whatever the reason for your interest in mushrooms---whether it be for scientific study, the search for
edible species, or for the sheer appreciation of their beauty---this book will serve as a trustworthy and
inspiring guide to mushrooms of northeastern North America.

| Black Mold - Your Health and Your Home |
by SVMS's own Richard F. Progovitz |
Approximately one hundred species of mold are toxic and about fifteen are known to cause negative health
effects in humans. Symptoms of exposure to mold can include allergic reactions, asthma and chronic cold
and flu-like conditions. Black Mold - Your Health and Your Home systematically demystifies the molds we
encounter in our daily lives.

| Fungi -- The Hidden Kingdom |
Utah State University Intermountain Herbarium |
Fungi are not plants. Living things are organized for study
into large, basic groups called kingdoms. Fungi were listed in the Plant Kingdom for many
years. Then scientists learned that fungi show a closer relation to animals, but are unique
and separate life forms. Now, Fungi are placed in their own Kingdom.

| Home Mushroom Cultivation with Hydrogen Peroxide |
Two volume book |
An instruction manual in two volumes based on the use of peroxide in mushroom
cultivation, by R.R. Wayne, Ph.D. So why use hydrogen peroxide in mushroom growing?
Hydrogen peroxide simplifies the whole process of growing fungi. There's no need to build a
sterile laboratory, buy a special giant pressure cooker, or even construct a glove box. A low
concentration of peroxide keeps out the contaminants, while allowing healthy growth of mushroom
tissue. And as the mushroom tissue grows, it converts the peroxide to water and oxygen,
leaving a clean, vigorous mushroom culture.
