Book Details: Complete Title: Fungi: Their Nature, Influence, and Uses [Hardcover] Author: M. C. Cooke Language: English No. Of Pages: 370 About the Book- About The Book : Fungi - Their Nature, Influence, And Uses is a comprehensive treatise on the topic of fungi, written by Mordecai Cubitt Cooke and originally published in 1888. When people think of fungi, they usually immediately think of poisonous mushrooms of harmful bacteria. Contrary to popular belief, relatively few mushrooms and fungi are actually harmful, and the beneficial properties and applications of fungi are fascinatingly varied and surprising. About the Author- About The Author : Mordecai Cubitt Cooke (1825-1914) was an English botanist and mycologist who was, at various points, a London schoolteacher, a Kew mycologist, curator at the India Museum, journalist and author. Cooke joined Edward Step (1855–1931) in publishing the magazine Hardwicke's Science-Gossip: A Monthly Medium of Interchange and Gossip for Students and Lovers of Nature from 1865 to 1893. From 1872 to 1894 Cooke also edited Grevillea, a monthly record of cryptogamic botany and its literature, a periodical devoted to mycology. He was a founder of the Quekett Microscopical Club in 1865, in response to a request in Science-Gossip, and a founding member of the British Mycological Society.It has been suggested that Cooke's description of the perceived distortions of the size of objects while intoxicated by the fungus Amanita muscaria (commonly known as the fly agaric or fly amanita), in his books The Seven Sisters of Sleep and A Plain and Easy Account of British Fungi, inspired the passage in Lewis Carroll's 1865 popular children's storybook Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, where Alice grows or shrinks on eating parts of the mushroom. (The effects were later termed Alice in Wonderland syndrome.) He is honoured in the naming of Cookeina, which is a genus of cup fungi in the family Sarcoscyphaceae, which was found in 1891.
