Fungi of Temperate Europe / Nordeuropas svampe, 2019 |
|
Nordeuropas svampe omfatter over 2.800 arter af svampe fordelt på over 1.000 slægter. Slægterne er inddelt i 73 formgrupper, der hver indledes med et nydesignet bestemmelseshjul til intuitiv slægtsbestemmelse. Hver art illustreres og beskrives med bl.a. økologi, udbredelse og forvekslingsmuligheder. Nordeuropas svampe er både ved sit omfang og ved de innovative bestemmelseshjul et banebrydende værk. Her gives offentligheden for første gang indsigt i både klassiske storsvampe og i de mere obskure svampegrupper som barksvampe, hængeskåle, rustsvampe, frynseskiver, nålesvampe, meldug og kernesvampe. „Dette er den nye Bibel, hvor der jo i 1. Svampebog står: »på sjettedagen skabte Gud svampene, og så at det var godt. På syvendedagen var det hviledag, men Han satte gode folk til at lave Nordeuropas Svampe, så menneskene kunne forstå og værdsætte hans skaberværk«. Og det var også godt.“ • Fungi of Temperate Europe covers 2,800 species of fungi distributed over more than 1,000 genera. These genera are divided into 73 form groups, which are each introduces through an innovativ identification wheel. Each species is illistrated and described, including notes on ecology, distribution and similar species. “The whole book is extremely well thought out, with ease of identification as the most important criterion for lay-out and presentation. And that alone makes it worth buying . . . Not only for people in Europe is this the best guidebook to get, it also is extremely useful for people in other parts of the world. It is a splendid example how to present the multitude of forms in a way that makes identification possible and fun, while at the same time showing the beauty and diversity of fungi.” If you don’t have time for reading, here’s the bottom line: anyone who has an interest in mushrooms should own this (actually these) big amazing book(s), regardless of whether you live in Europe or not . . . The late Harley Barnhart once opened a review of a marvelously illustrated Japanese mushroom book by stating “After 20 years of effort and God knows how many dollars, I thought once that I had become a pretty fair photographer of mushrooms. Last week this book arrived and, for a time, I had to fight the urge to burn all my slide files and start over.” At the time, my own photographic skills were not terribly advanced. But now, 30 years later, I know just how Harley felt. Jens Petersen is, quite simply, the best all-around mushroom photographer there is.

Svampe – du kan spise / Fungi to eat, 2014 |
"Svampe – du kan spise" er et godt sted at starte, hvis du vil igang med spisesvampene. Bogen behandler de bedste spisesvampe (og de farligste giftsvampe) i overskuelige grupper og er fyldt med billeder af alle de detaljer, man skal lægge mærke til når man samler spisesvampe. |
Blomsterliv / Flowerlife, 2014 |
"Blomsteliv" er en anderledes blomsterbog, som gennem ultra-makro fotografier viser detaljerne i støvblade, grifler, hår og pollen – det er blomsternes intimeste dele, der afsløres. Details . . . |
I svampenes rige / The Kingdom of Fungi, 2013 |
"The Kingdom of Fungi" is a book on the biology, ecology, morphology and systematics of fungi. If you have always wondered what fungi are and how they live, this is the place to start. The book aims to be self explanatory through more than 800 illustrations and contains a minimum of text. In a way it is my old Danish mycological textbook »Svamperiget« (see below) made intelligible for the rest of the world. The book has 265 pages.
