Honey Bee Biology by Brian R. Johnson is a comprehensive and authoritative reference book that provides an in-depth overview of honey bee biology. Covering topics from molecular genetics to pollination biology, this book brings established knowledge up to date while incorporating emerging areas of inquiry. The study of honey bees has greatly expanded in recent years, with a growing interest in these organisms due to their vital role in agriculture and as a model system for basic questions in biology. This book sheds light on the latest findings on pesticides, parasites, and pathogens, as well as the possible causes of colony collapse disorder and the devastating honey bee losses we are witnessing today. As a valuable resource for social insect biologists, scientifically savvy beekeepers, and any scientist interested in bees, Honey Bee Biology is an essential up-to-date general reference that will provide insights into the biology and behavior of these fascinating creatures.
