"This book is a well-organized and superbly researched
publication well suited for researchers engaged in further studying
the biochemical basis for the functional effects of tea extracts or
components and for healthcare professionals who are inclined to use
traditional medicines…"

"An's book is in the same series of the two edited by Arora and is
very much one of a triumvirate, largely complementary rather than
duplicatory in content. …Especially well-researched, comprehensive,
and authoritative, is the review of 'Biological activities of
fungal metabolites' (Peláez). …my recommendation has to be the
three superb and largely complementary Marcel Dekker volumes,
carefully put together under the keen eye of the series editor,
Joan W. Bennett."

"…the handbook stands alone as a hefty reference guide to
industrial exploration of fungi. …International literature is
well-represented."
-E-Streams, Vol. 8, No. 9
"The enthusiastic introductory chapter is followed by a wealth of
information about the nature, biological activity and taxonomic
significance of fungal metabolites… .The book is packed with
information and the Editor is to be congratulated on getting
together an extensive team of contributors. Although most of the
book is concerned with the beneficial use of fungi, one chapter is
devoted to a general account of mycotoxins. …this book should
surely be on the shelves of any laboratory involved with fungal
biotechnology and is an excellent source of information for those
involved with teaching and research on fungi."
