SUMMARY:Thor Hanson Presents Buzz: The Nature and Necessity of Bees
DESCRIPTION:Thor Hanson Presents Buzz: The Nature and Necessity of Bees\, a natural and cultural history of the buzzing wee beasties that make the world go round. \n\n\n\n\n “A wondrous\, action-packed journey to discover the secret lives of bees\, flowers\, and the unconventional men and women who study them. This book really is the buzz about bees\, and it’s destined to become a natural history classic.”–Stephen Buchmann\, author of The Reason for Flowers\n\nTo reserve your seat\, purchase a copy of Buzz by speaking to a bookseller or ordering from our website.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBees are like oxygen: ubiquitous\, essential\, and\, for the most part\, unseen. While we might overlook them\, they lie at the heart of relationships that bind the human and natural worlds. In Buzz\, the beloved Thor Hanson takes us on a journey that begins 125 million years ago\, when a wasp first dared to feed pollen to its young. From honeybees and bumbles to lesser-known diggers\, miners\, leafcutters\, and masons\, bees have long been central to our harvests\, our mythologies\, and our very existence. They’ve given us sweetness and light\, the beauty of flowers\, and as much as a third of the foodstuffs we eat. And\, alarmingly\, they are at risk of disappearing. \nAs informative and enchanting as the waggle dance of a honeybee\, Buzz shows us why all bees are wonders to celebrate and protect. Read this book and you’ll never overlook them again. \nAuthor and biologist Thor Hanson is a Guggenheim Fellow\, a Switzer Environmental Fellow\, and winner of the John Burroughs Medal. His books include The Impenetrable Forest\, Feathers\, The Triumph of Seeds as well as the illustrated children’s favorite\, Bartholomew Quill. Honors for Thor’s writing include The Phi Beta Kappa Award and two Pacific Northwest Book Awards. Hanson lives with his wife and son on an island in the Pacific Northwest.
