Book excerpt: This book addresses each topic in the FIBKA Basic and Intermediate Examinations with a view to assisting those studying on their own informally at home. The syllabus is a long one with over 90 topics to be considered. Until the issue of this book it was necessary for the student to consult a multitude of different works to acquire a thorough understanding of the subject matter for examinat!on purposes. The book is a must for anyone contemplating either of the two examinations. The authors are very well qualified to prepare such a volume. They are both BBKA examiners and Master Beekeepers and are weil familiar with the problems that confront students and candidates. They are both past winners of the coveted Wax Chandler Prize for the best results in the BBKA Senior Examinations and are the only man and wife team to achieve this feat. John started beekeeping during the second world war and Dawn started after they returned to the UK from careers in the Colonial Service, Engineering and Nursing respectively. They are now retired in Devon and manage 20 colonies and about the same number of nuclei as part of their queen rearing programme each year. John has been a member for some years of the BBKA Examination Board.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From ancient cave paintings of honey bee nests to modern science’s richly diversified investigation of honey bee biology and its applications, the human imagination has long been captivated by the mysterious and highly sophisticated behavior of this paragon among insect societies. In the first broad treatment of honey bee biology to appear in decades, Mark Winston provides rare access to the world of this extraordinary insect. In a bright and engaging style, Winston probes the dynamics of the honey bee’s social organization. He recreates for us the complex infrastructure of the nest, describes the highly specialized behavior of workers, queens, and drones, and examines in detail the remarkable ability of the honey bee colony to regulate its functions according to events within and outside the nest. Winston integrates into his discussion the results of recent studies, bringing into sharp focus topics of current bee research. These include the exquisite architecture of the nest and its relation to bee physiology; the intricate division of labor and the relevance of a temporal caste structure to efficient functioning of the colony; and, finally, the life-death struggles of swarming, supersedure, and mating that mark the reproductive cycle of the honey bee. The Biology of the Honey Bee not only reviews the basic aspects of social behavior, ecology, anatomy, physiology, and genetics, it also summarizes major controversies in contemporary honey bee research, such as the importance of kin recognition in the evolution of social behavior and the role of the well-known dance language in honey bee communication. Thorough, well-illustrated, and lucidly written, this book will for many years be a valuable resource for scholars, students, and beekeepers alike.

Book excerpt: This book follows the same style and approach as all the other popular Beekeeping Study Notes for the BBKA Examinations, the first of which was published in 1990. This third edition has been updated and prepared by John and Dawn Yates. They need no introduction as they are both well known beekeepers. They have followed their usual style by addressing every section of the syllabus in considerable detail in order to assist those who may be contemplating I sitting this examination. They are both Master Beekeepers having passed the BBKA Senior Examination on successive years and both gaining the coveted Wax Chandler Prize for the best written papers of their year. They are both convinced that the BBKA must be a self-supporting organisation, particularly in the educational field where the traditional assistance from County Bee Instructors has now vanished and assistance from the National Bee Unit in adult bee disease diagnosis has become prohibitively expensive for the average beekeeper. These latest study notes will be especially useful for the training of branch microscopists. The book provides the necessary information to enable those who are interested in microscopy to attain the confidence and competence required. The examination sylabus has changed since the first edition was prepared; it now contains much on safety and hygiene. This third edition has several new colour plates.

Book excerpt: Jo Widdicombe, B.Sc. (Hons.) Environmental Science, has been beekeeping for over 30 years and has been a member of BIBBA for more than 25 years, serving on the BIBBA Committee. Jo worked as a Seasonal Bee Inspector for 5 years and is a Bee Farmer in Cornwall running over 100 colonies. "The Principles of Bee Improvement" offers a practical approach and is an attempt to lay down guidelines which are true and applicable to beekeepers in any circumstance. Rather than searching the country, or the world, for the perfect bee to breed from, this book explains how to select and improve bees from the local bee population. It discusses the problems of importation, the use of natural and artificial selection, assessment of colonies and selection within a strain. By following these methods, the standards of our bees can be raised, producing gentle, hardy and productive bees.

Book excerpt: Grace O'Malley is unique as the only woman recorded on the famous Baptista Boazio map of Ireland (1599), a tribute to the status she achieved as a leader on land and at sea in the 16th century. In 1979 Anne Chambers' original biography of this famous Irishwoman, who over the centuries had been airbrushed from historical record, put her on the map once again. The biography became a milestone in Irish publishing and the catalyst for the restoration of Grace O'Malley to political, social and maritime history, as well as establishing her as an inspirational female role model in the classroom.In the 40th anniversary edition of this international bestselling biography, drawn from rare contemporary manuscript records, the author presents Ireland's great pirate queen not as a vague mythological figure but as one of the world's most extraordinary female leaders. Political pragmatist and tactician, rebel, intrepid mariner and pirate, wife, lover, mother, grandmother and matriarch, the 'most notorious woman in all the coasts of Ireland', Grace O'Malley challenged and triumphed over the social and political barriers she encountered in the course of her long, pioneering life.Breaching boundaries of gender imbalance and bias in a period of immense social and political upheaval and change, Grace O'Malley rewrote the rules to become one of the world's first recorded feminist trailblazers.This updated anniversary edition brings Grace O'Malley's story to a new generation awakened to the global focus on gender equality as well as positive ageing.

Book excerpt: Ireland is an island surrounded by ocean, with a high percentage of its population living in the coastal zone and has often been referred to as an "island nation". The importance of the coastal zone to Ireland is extremely high, given its economic value from tourism and recreation, fishing, aquaculture, renewable energy, ports and linked industries, as well as its environmental significance. Proximity to the sea has also profoundly influenced Ireland's history, culture and multiple identities. Although there are existing guides about Ireland's coastal geology, physical geography and landscapes, these are fragmented and mostly of a local nature. "Shorelines: The Coastal Atlas of Ireland" will aim to fill this gap by looking at the coastline of the entire island of Ireland as a whole, from the physical, human and environmental perspectives.The Atlas will contribute towards the dissemination and outreach of scientific knowledge about the coasts of Ireland and of the processes that are shaping them, to the broader public, government and decision makers. The Atlas is relevant globally, to all those that are interested in coastal matters and the work is not just about Ireland, but Ireland, as an analogue for many of the world's coasts.Visually stunning, accessible and an academic tour de force, this Atlas will resonate with everybody who has a connection to Ireland and anybody interested in the Irish coast.
