Honey Bee Biology and Beekeeping

"First released in 1999, Honey Bee Biology and Beekeeping is widely accepted as a major textbook of Apiculture (beekeeping). Universities use it to teach college students bee biology and beekeeping.

Beekeepers and bee clubs use it to teach other beekeepers

It concentrates on the "why", "how", and "when" of beekeeping. It explains bee and beekeeping basics in a manner meaningful to people who lack an extensive background in biology. Yet it is not oversimplified, and provides a meaningful source of beekeeping information for the informed beekeeper.

The Third Edition has been carefully edited, updated and expanded to 480 pages. New chapters have been added, as have colorful new graphics and photographs. The Glossary has also been expanded."
