factual

I was asked to review this book by Nudge books.

Algae is interesting - well it is now to be honest before reading this I knew so very little- now I am enlightened.

the author splits the book into four parts where it comes from, how it is a food source , household and practical uses 

I do hope seaweed is added to our food more often as it is rich in nutrients, it is interesting to know historical details and that it takes the reader up to modern day with climate change.

the authors personal accounts of meeting with scientists and her thoughts were very informative and made this book even more real to the reader.

Easy to read, well researched and surprising discoveries along the way make this a really good read.
