Bee hives. They might look at first glance like seething anarchy,
but the bees know exactly what they are doing. With astounding
skill, precise expertise and impressive teamwork they carry out
their plans. The Honey Factory plunges the reader into the life of
a colony of bees and takes them on a tour of their 'factory'. This
is a world inhabited by headstrong individuals with clever methods
and an amazing set of rules. Why aren't male bees allowed to stay
in their colony just as it is getting cosy? What lies behind the
sexual excesses of a young queen bee? And how do all the bees in a
hive come to collective decisions? The Honey Factory answers these
questions and more. Combining the most fascinating discoveries and
greatest secrets in bee research, it ultimately shows readers why
bees are so precious and why humans and bees cannot survive without
each other.
