Book Synopsis The Beekeepers: How Humans Changed the World of Bumble Bees (Scholastic Focus) by : Dana L. Church
Download or read book The Beekeepers: How Humans Changed the World of Bumble Bees (Scholastic Focus) written by Dana L. Church and published by Scholastic Inc.. This book was released on 2021-03-02 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dive deep into the world of this everyday insect -- and the science behind its uncertain future. Bumble bees are as familiar to most of us as the flowers these fuzzy insects feed upon. But did you know that the bees in your garden could be escapees from a local greenhouse, or descended from stowaways on a Viking ship?Bumble bees are a vital part of our lives and Earth's ecosystems, so much so that we've commercialized their breeding and shipped them across states, countries, and ecosystems for our benefit. However, all of that human interference has consequences. Bumble bees are pushing out native species and altering ecosystems worldwide. Pesticide use has led to the spread of disease in local colonies. And some species may be disappearing entirely.The Beekeepers is an expertly researched overview of bumble bees -- from hive hierarchies to how their brains work -- and the passionate humans and scientists who are fighting for their survival. With a thoughtful and accessible voice, researcher Dana Church introduces readers to the fascinating world of bumble bees, how and why some are thriving while others are floundering, and how both experts and regular citizens are working to ensure their future. Equal parts endearing, frustrating, and hopeful, this scientific narrative is essential for readers looking to understand and make an impact on our changing world.

Book Synopsis The Discovery of a Visual System by : Adrian Horridge
Download or read book The Discovery of a Visual System written by Adrian Horridge and published by CABI. This book was released on 2019-05-23 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the only account of what honeybees actually see. Bees detect some visual features such as edges and colours, but there is no sign that they reconstruct patterns or put together features to form objects. Bees detect motion but have no perception of what it is that moves, and certainly they do not recognize "things" by their shapes. Yet they clearly see well enough to fly and find food with a minute brain. Bee vision is therefore relevant to the construction of simple artificial visual systems, for example for mobile robots. The surprising conclusion is that bee vision is adapted to the recognition of places, not things. In this volume, Adrian Horridge also sets out the curious and contentious history of how bee vision came to be understood, with an account of a century of neglect of old experimental results, errors of interpretation, sharp disagreements, and failures of the scientific method. The design of the experiments and the methods of making inferences from observations are also critically examined, with the conclusion that scientists are often hesitant, imperfect and misleading, ignore the work of others, and fail to consider alternative explanations. The erratic path to understanding makes interesting reading for anyone with an interest in the workings of science but particularly those researching insect vision and invertebrate sensory systems.

Book excerpt: 1926, and Joe Sandilands is back from India, enjoying the frantic pleasures of Jazz Age London. Yet, there is a darkness behind all that postwar gaiety. A woman has been discovered bludgeoned to death in her suite at the Ritz. A broken window and missing emerald necklace suggest that it is a burglary gone wrong. But the corpse is that of a much-respected member of the British establishment, Dame Beatrice Joliffe, one of the founders of the Wrens, and so Scotland Yard send Joe to conduct a swift enquiry. Her companion, an ex-chorus girl, falls from Waterloo Bridge at twilight. Two of the Dame's clique of eager young Wrens commit suicide. All these deaths make Joe suspect that Beatrice has been killed by someone close to her but suddenly he finds that the case is closed and he is asked by his superiors to surrender his files. Against the background of the looming General Strike, and pressure from unseen governmental presences he struggles on, picking his way through the political panic and rebelling against authority, through to a shattering solution to the killings.

Book Synopsis Audrey: Children of Light by : Mrs. O. F. Walton
Download or read book Audrey: Children of Light written by Mrs. O. F. Walton and published by Library of Alexandria. This book was released on 2020-09-28 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "NOW, Audrey!" "Yes, Aunt Cordelia?" "That's the third clean pinafore that you've had this week," said Aunt Cordelia severely, "and it's only Thursday. Now, Audrey!" And when Aunt Cordelia said, "Now, Audrey!" The little girl who was addressed knew that something was seriously amiss. She was a pretty little girl, with fair hair and brown eyes, and the warm summer sun had tanned her as brown as the nuts in the window of Aunt Cordelia's shop. She stood in the corner of the little back parlour looking ruefully at her pinafore, which was almost as black as if she had sent it up the chimney for five minutes' change of air. "Now, Audrey!" repeated Aunt Cordelia more solemnly than before. The poor child could not bear up against this last terrible appeal, and bursting into tears, she sobbed— "I wish there weren't such things as pinafores; I do wish there weren't!" "No such things as pinafores?" said Aunt Cordelia. "Why, what would become of careless little girls' frocks, if there were no nice pinafores to cover them, I should like to know?" "I hate pinafores," sobbed the child, taking no notice of her aunt's words; "I wish the Queen would say nobody was ever to wear them again!" "For shame, Audrey," said Aunt Cordelia, "you should never say you hate anything; it's very wicked indeed! Least of all you should never hate pinafores, that keep you nice and clean and tidy." "But that's just what they don't do," said Audrey. "They will get black and grimy. I can't ever have a bit of fun because of them." Then, as she dried her tears, a bright thought struck her, and she said, "Couldn't I have a black pinafore, Aunt Cordelia, and then it wouldn't show the dirt, would it now?" "Well," said her aunt, laughing in spite of herself, "it will come to that one of these days, I expect. Now go and get a clean pinafore at once; and remember that's four this week," she called after her, as the little girl ran upstairs. It was a quaint old house in which Audrey and her aunt, Miss Palmer, lived. Miss Palmer loved to boast about it to the customers who came to the shop. It was three hundred years old, she told them, and the wainscot was real oak, and the bannisters on the stairs were carved, and there were curious old cupboards with black oak doors, and there was a chimney so wide that none of the sweep's brushes were large enough to sweep it. But though Miss Palmer was very proud of her old house, which had been in the family for so many years that the family had quite lost count of their number, yet it caused her a great deal of worry and anxiety. There never was such a place for dust as that old house; it collected in every corner, it lay upon the window-sills, and it settled upon the bright dish-covers and pewter jugs in the kitchen. With this dust Miss Palmer was always waging war. From morning till night—week in and week out—she fought perseveringly with the ever-gathering dust, and tried to make her house as prim and as neat as her tidy soul longed to see it. But just as Audrey's pinafores would get black, so the old house would get dusty, and the two together brought many a line of care into Miss Palmer's forehead. Audrey had lived with her aunt since she was a fortnight old. Her father was a baker in a town two hundred miles away. She had never seen him, and he had never seen her since her aunt had carried her off, a tiny, sickly baby, nearly eight years ago. Audrey's mother had died soon after she was born, and her father had sent a piteous letter to his sister Cordelia, telling her he did not know what would become of him and of his nine motherless children, now Alice was gone.

Book excerpt: A dead treasure hunter. A mystery illness. And the world’s worst Valentine’s Day. There’s treasure in the hills surrounding Naghatune Bay. But the small coastal town of eccentric citizens and magickal secrets isn’t fond of outsiders, and no one’s happy about the attention brought by the discovery. When a treasure hunter ends up dead in the middle of Suri Mudge’s teahouse, the reluctant medium is the prime suspect. Misfortune goes from bad to worse when the snooty antiquities expert examining the curious cache dies, too—at the same time a mysterious sickness begins spreading through the town. With the deputy sheriff in the hospital, the locals don't know where to turn for help. But Suri is no stranger to suspicious deaths or cranky ghosts. As the only person who can communicate with the recently departed, she might be the town’s sole hope for solving the murders and saving her neighbors. Tainted Treasure is the third book in the Haunted Coast paranormal cozy mystery series, set in the same universe as the Rune Witch urban fantasy books. Readers who like spirited ghosts, quirky characters, and magickal mysteries will love the Haunted Coast books!

Download or read book After the Pain written by Fiona Mills and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2006 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a poet, playwright, novelist, short-story writer, and critic, Gayl Jones has always resisted labels in her quest to find a liberating voice for black women and herself. With a poet's lyricism and a musician's ear for rhythm, she continually seeks new ways to confront the barriers, traumas, insecurities, and prejudices oppressing black women, and, by extension, all women. After the Pain: Critical Essays on Gayl Jones is the first comprehensive collection of essays dedicated solely to the exploration of Jones's work. Ranging from analyses of her use of language and music to reevaluations of her representation of sexuality and gender roles to examinations of the oft-overlooked connections between Latin America and African Americans, each of these essays investigates Jones's desire to continually complicate the process of identity formation.
