from the dust jacket: "A wealth of information of bee biology, the behavior of bees, and the science of apiculture is offered in this valuable book. Not intended as an instruction manual, it is designed, rather, to provide the scientific background of beekeeping practices and to answer questions about bees.The author traces the evolution of honey bees, indicating how their highly integrated social order developed, and he describes the occupants of the hive and the materials they collect. Making frequent reference to the most recent research findings, he explains the fascinating and elaborate ways that bees use dances and odors to convey information. Covering such additional and more practical topics as package bees and queens, pollination, bee diseases, and beekeeping as a hobby, this book will serve as a useful reference volume for experienced beekeepers and beginners alike."
