Written in plain and accessible language by actual researchers, it should be part of every beekeeper?s library. The respective chapters not only present raw data; they also explain how to read and understand the most common figures. With topics ranging from honeybee nutrition to strains of Varroa resistant bees, from the effects of pesticide chemicals to understanding diseases, and including a discussion of venom allergies, the book provides essential ?knowhow? that beekeepers will benefit from every time they inspect their hives. Further, each chapter ends with the author explaining how beekeepers can (or cannot) directly utilize the information to enhance their beekeeping operation. The text is structured to facilitate ease of use, with each author addressing the same four issues: 1) What are the specific purposes or goals of these experiments? Or more simply: what have these studies taught us? 2) How should a non-scientist read the data generated? 3) What are the key points in relation to practicing beekeepers? goals? 4) How can the data or techniques discussed be applied by beekeepers in their own apiaries? This approach allows readers to look up specific information quickly, understand it and even put it to use without having to read entire chapters. Further, the chapters are highly readable and concise. As such, the book offers a valuable guide and faithful companion for all beekeepers, one they can use day in and day out. 606 $aEntomology 606 $aLife sciences 606 $aClimate change 606 $aParasitology 606 $aNature 606 $aEnvironment 606 $aEntomology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L25090 606 $aPopular Life Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Q25000 606 $aClimate Change/Climate Change Impacts$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/313000 606 $aParasitology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B19002 606 $aPopular Science in Nature and Environment$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Q16000 615 0$aEntomology. 615 0$aLife sciences. 615 0$aClimate change. 615 0$aParasitology. 615 0$aNature. 615 0$aEnvironment. 615 14$aEntomology. 615 24$aPopular Life Sciences. 615 24$aClimate Change/Climate Change Impacts. 615 24$aParasitology. 615 24$aPopular Science in Nature and Environment. 676 $a595.7 702 $aVreeland$b Russell H$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aSammataro$b Diana$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910253950303321 996 $aBeekeeping ?
