Reviews

This is a timely and comprehensive overview of a key topic rarely addressed in treatises on mycorrhizal associations ... . I found this a most insightful, stimulating, well-edited, and even exciting work. The editor is to be congratulated on having had the vision and energy necessary to bring it to completion.
