"In my years as a beekeeper, I have come to the conclusion that we can learn much from these insects. It's not that honeybees are so wise, although they have been around for 6 million years, and it's not sure we will achieve that longevity. Rather, I come to my conclusions from reflecting on both our worlds and seeing the way bees exist in harmony with nature. In this book, I present some of those lessons." -- from the Introduction.

Listening to the Bees is a collaborative exploration by two writers to illuminate the most profound human questions: Who are we? Who do we want to be in the world? Through the distinct but complementary lenses of science and poetry, Mark Winston and Renée Saklikar reflect on the tension of being an individual living in a society, and about the devastation wrought by overly intensive management of agricultural and urban habitats. Listening to the Bees takes readers into the laboratory and out to the field, into the worlds of scientists and beekeepers, and to meetings where the research community intersects with government policy and business. The result is an insiders’ view of the way research is conducted—its brilliant potential and its flaws—along with the personal insights and remarkable personalities experienced over a forty-year career that parallels the rise of industrial agriculture.
