Summary |
"Listening to the Bees is a collaborative exploration by two writers to illuminate the most profound human questions: Who are we? Who do we want to be in the world? Through the distinct but complementary lenses of science and poetry, Mark Winston and Renée Saklikar reflect on the tension of being an individual living in a society, and about the devastation wrought by overly intensive management of agricultural and urban habitats. Listening to the Bees take readers into the laboratory and out to the field, into the worlds of scientists and beekeepers, and to meetings where the research community intersects with government policy and business. The result is an insiders' view of the way research is conducted-its brilliant potential and its flaws-along with the personal insights and remarkable personalities experienced over a forty-year career that parallels the rise of industrial agriculture."-- Provided by publisher. |
