Celia F Davis

2007 158 pages (D305)

Celia Davis’ first book The honeybee inside out (D300) described the anatomy and behaviour of the honey bee. This new companion volume looks at more areas of honey bee biology. The first part considers honey bees in relation to other bees and wasp, the benefits of social behaviour, and discussion of bee breeding. The next part of the book is an assessment of honey bee pathology, grouped under the following headings: Health and hazards, When the kids are ill, Problems with the grown-ups, Mighty mites, and The enemy within and without.

Davis has the skill of making scientific information readable and interesting, and these chapters make the topics accessible and clear. The following chapters discuss flowers, foraging behaviour, bee products and honey.

This excellent text can be useful for all beekeepers and trainers, as it provides readily accessible knowledge of bee science.
