This is the masterwork of the world's most renowned authority on bees--the culmination of more than fifty years of research. It describes in non-technical language what von Frisch discovered about their methods of orientation, their sensory faculties, and their remarkable ability to communicate with one another. Seeley's foreword traces the revolutionary effects of this work, not just for the study of honeybees, but for all subsequent research in animal behavior.
