Mycelium Running: How Mushrooms Can Help Save the World is the sixth book written by American mycologist Paul Stamets.
In Mycelium Running (Ten Speed Press 2005), Stamets explores the use and applications of fungi in bioremediation—a practice called mycoremediation. Stamets details methods of termite and ant control using nontoxic mycelia, and describes how certain fungi may be able to neutralize anthrax, nerve gas, and smallpox.[1][2]
