具体描述
Matsutake is the most valuable mushroom in the world – and a weed that grows in human-disturbed forests across the northern hemisphere. Through its ability to nurture trees, matsutake helps forests to grow in daunting places. It is also an edible delicacy in Japan, where it sometimes commands astronomical prices. In all its contradictions, matsutake offers insights into areas far beyond just mushrooms and addresses a crucial question: what manages to live in the ruins we have made?
A tale of diversity within our damaged landscapes, The Mushroom at the End of the World follows one of the strangest commodity chains of our times to explore the unexpected corners of capitalism. Here, we witness the varied and peculiar worlds of matsutake commerce: the worlds of Japanese gourmets, capitalist traders, Hmong jungle fighters, industrial forests, Yi Chinese goat herders, Finnish nature guides, and more. These companions also lead us into fungal ecologies and forest histories to better understand the promise of cohabitation in a time of massive human destruction. By investigating one of the world's most sought-after fungi, The Mushroom at the End of the World presents an original examination into the relation between capitalist destruction and collaborative survival within multispecies landscapes, the prerequisite for continuing life on earth.

读后感
一本从松茸发散到资本供应链，资本积累历史的书，以小见大，不仅讲述了松茸在菌类中的独特性，更从松茸与整个森林生态的关系，与寄居在森林中的采摘者的文化纠缠，进而到后期的购买者、使用者之间的联系，让松茸从单纯的美食视角中转身出来，获得了一个更为广阔的展示空间，只...
评分个人很喜欢这本书，因为很喜欢这种以小见大讲一个故事的叙事。这本书从一种偏门的菌类（比起口蘑什么的）串起了东方和西方，近几十年的资本主义发展史，甚至学术史，故事讲得太精彩了。我觉得要是完全以此书为脚本拍个纪录片肯定是个特别有看头的纪录片。 但是要从经典的学术结...

用户评价
思维如此发散的田野调查是第一次读到。从采松茸的人出发讲资本主义、流动群体、全球经济，以及文化融入的大论，也不明白作者到底是要作井底之蛙之论还是冰山一角之论（个人认为是前者）。偶尔还诗兴大发论一论气味的哲学，是不是有点自恋呢？另外，作者对于文化融入的见解实在是不能更不同意！
评分mushroom是棱镜，折射出当代史论和全球生产链。期待一下朋友带回来的中译本。
评分Supply chain 和commodity chain的区分很有用，指出后资本主义依赖salvage economy 作为主要的生产模式，从而外包lead firm对工人与环境维系的责任。很惊喜的是这本书在环境毁灭与生存困境的描述中仍然保持着某种乐观- will the art of noticing save us from what's to come?
评分too poetic and idealized. 人类学家过于沉溺于主体sense-making's autonomy导致的结果就是强行赋予意义 不知道是不是因为相对于社会学有be ideologically positive的隐形学科负担 最后两堂seminar谈论life amidst ruins & the future已经让我觉得浪漫化倾向严重到了misleading的程度 而且degree of generalization越来越低
评分感情大于逻辑
