The field of fungi has a vast and rapidly expanding body of literature. Many undergraduate students lack the time to read original publications and rely on their course instructors for information. The absence of an illustrated practical book in this field further exacerbates the issue. To address this, the book aims to provide useful and important information in one place, presenting fungi in a simple manner that can be easily understood by students. The book covers various aspects of fungi, catering to the needs of both beginners and advanced students and researchers. There is a constant need to update the book with recent text and additional illustrations to better serve the students' needs.
