Form and Function in the Honey Bee is an authoritative reference work that explores the fascinating world of honey bee biology. Written by Dr Lesley Goodman, this posthumous publication brings together her life's work to provide a comprehensive understanding of the physiology and anatomy of the honey bee.

The book delves into the major structures and activities of the honey bee, examining topics such as antennal sense organs, vision, feeding, respiration, flight, glands, and colony defence. With over 340 diagrams, micrographs, and colour illustrations, this expert guide is equally suitable for both seasoned bee scientists and students looking to introduce themselves to this field.

Completed by Prof Richard J Cooter and Dr Pamela Munn, this book provides a detailed understanding of how the honey bee behaves and why. With its unique blend of scientific insight and visual aids, Form and Function in the Honey Bee is an essential resource for anyone interested in the biology of these fascinating insects.
