"A thorough and thoughtful primer on the interiority of
bees."---Mike Welch, Scientific American
"The book's bees astound; so too the clever humans who study
them."---Robert Eagan, Library Journal, starred review
"The knowledge on offer here is as entertaining as it is edifying.
Readers won't look at bees the same way again." * Publishers Weekly
*
"An entrancing journey through the senses and life struggles of
bees."---Alun Anderson, New Scientist
"The Mind Of A Bee is a fascinating book that I hope will
be read and understood by as broad an audience as possible, so that
the important conclusions within may be shared more
widely."---Amanda Williams, Buzz About Bees
"This is an amazing book. I give it my highest
recommendation."---David Gascoigne, Travel with Birds
"Overall, this is an outstanding book that provides a comprehensive
overview of honeybee cognition. It provides a clear introduction to
the fi eld for amateur bee lovers as well as a nuanced and
up-to-date summary for professionals. By looking at the world
through the lens of a bee, readers will develop tools to better
understand the distinct and vivid experiences of tiny invertebrates
that are too frequently ignored."---Elizabeth A. Tibbetts,
Current Biology
"I strongly recommend you read [Chittka's] book and if you will
excuse the pun 'make your own mind up'. Science and nature writing
at its finest and an essential read."---Roy Stewart, British
Naturalists Association
"Written with moments of levity and soaked in curiosity, The Mind
of a Bee is a delight."---Eliza Middleton, The
Conversation
"Chittka has managed the extraordinary feat of condensing over
three decades of research into a single book and in such a way as
to make it accessible to the non-expert." * Beekeepers Quarterly
