Reviews

This book is a real first. It is highly illustrated with color photographs, bringing readers step by step into external and internal bee anatomy and pollination ecology ... . Hope blossoms due to the efforts of Quezada-Euan and the biologists, beekeepers, conservationists, educators, anthropologists, and business-minded naturalists (such things matter deeply) who will find the book authoritative and use it to move forward. (David Ward Roubik, The Quarterly Review of Biology, Vol. 94, September, 2019)
