Description

Honeybees by Jacques van AlphenJacques van Alphen describes the research that unravelled the behaviour of honey bees. Fascinating stories! How, for example, can a hive of several tens of thousands of individuals function without a leader? And what about the complicated sexual life of honey bees and, a problem Darwin was already considering, what is the ideal ratio of numbers of males to females? All aspects of the complicated sexual life turn out to be important in making bees

Jacques van Alphen describes the research that unravelled the behaviour of honey bees. Fascinating stories! How, for example, can a hive of several tens of thousands of individuals function without a leader? And what about the complicated sexual life of honey bees and, a problem Darwin was already considering, what is the ideal ratio of numbers of males to females? All aspects of the complicated sexual life turn out to be important in making bees resilient to new diseases and parasites.

In the US and Western Europe, honey bee colonies are still dying from varroa mite infections while bees in Southern Africa and South America quickly became resistant to it. This appears to have everything to do with the way honey bees are kept and bred.

Van Alphen suggests solutions for making honey bees sustainably resistant to diseases and parasites, he makes proposals to improve the welfare of honey bees and suggests how to minimise the threat of honey bees to the diversity of pollinators.

This book does not avoid the problems arising from honey bee keeping. Indeed, it puts forward bold solutions to them.

SIZE UP IF YOU ARE A HALF SIZE!
Size: 8, Color: Black
If you are a half size DEFINITELY size up! I am a 7-7.5, but in heels I’m usually a 7.5. I ordered an 8 and it fits perfectly!! They are super super cute but surprisingly not as comfortable as I thought considering it’s a pretty small heel. It’s not unbearable but I would keep that in mind if you’re planning to wear them standing for a long period of time. I didn’t see many reviews about people with half sizes except one and I listened to that one review and I’m very thankful I did. So PLEASE size up half a size.

If you are a 1/2 Size .... go up!
Size: 8, Color: Black, Size: 8, Color: Black
I love it! I wear heels everyday and these heels are great! Very comfortable since the heel is not to large also still sexy since it’s a stiletto! Only down is that they do not have 1/2 sizes and I am a 8.5. I got 8 based on the reviews but I knew better I should have went for the 9. Not their fault so I didn’t lower the rating. Aside from that they are awesome!
