1: Beautiful Book.
Thanks to Paul for sharing his understanding and knowledge of said mushrooms with the world. Beautiful book.

2: An interesting read
This is a detailed and fun book. It's probably what you're looking for. It contains clear descriptions, many quality pictures, suggestions about variations among species, safety considerations, and a helpful rating scale of very low to very high potency, also making it clear when the potency is unknown. For me, I chose to partner this book with a larger book which includes all species, just so I'm clear what I'm looking at and for, especially when it comes to ingestion, better to be extra careful, right?

3: Completes the collection
Most mushroom guides don't include these specimens, so a good addition to your field guides....

4: Why this book is vital to humanity as a whole
So many people are utterly consumed with their work life that they are avidly avoiding a spiritual experience, which is at the heart of what is ideal. This book may help serve as a gentlemenly guide to embarking on an organized hunt for fungi and an organized understanding of how to incorporate them into personal experience. Although some may argue with me, I would say this is actually high level reading.
The book provides the following:
The effects of psilocybin mushrooms
How to identify them while hunting outdoors
Tips on ingesting them and experiencing them
Pictures and diagrams to help identify them
Individual species descriptions
Poisonous look alikes
Includes a forward by renowned physician Dr. Andrew Weil
There is a wealth of info in this book and it is the best book on this subject.

5: This is the one...
...you're looking for. I've read a few books on the subject. If you want to hunt with confidence, than here ya' go.
