Since the second half of the 20th Century, our agricultural bee pollinators have faced mounting threats from ecological disturbance and pan-global movement of pathogens and parasites. At the same time, the area of pollinator-dependent crops is increasing globally with no end in sight. Never before has so much been asked of our finite pool of bee pollinators. This book not only explores the evolutionary and ecologic bases of these dynamics, it translates this knowledge into practical research-based guidance for using bees to pollinate crops. It emphasizes conserving wild bee populations as well as culturing honey bees, bumble bees, and managed solitary bees. To cover such a range of biology, theory, and practice from the perspectives of both the pollinator and the crop, the book is divided into two volumes. Volume 1 focuses on bees, their biology, coevolution with flowering plants, foraging ecology and management, and gives practical ways to increase bee abundance and pollinating performance on the farm. Volume 2 (this volume) focuses on crops, with chapters addressing crop-specific requirements and bee pollination management recommendations. Both volumes are essential reading for farmers, horticulturists and gardeners, researchers and professionals working in insect ecology and conservation, and students of entomology and crop protection.
Today everyone’s talking about honeybees. Because they are endangered, because we need them, because we want to protect them. This lovingly narrated picture book story will help pre-schoolers to understand why bees are so important to us. How is bee society organised? Why do bees collect nectar? How is honey made? Knowledge is important to help ensure we have an early receptiveness to environmental questions.

Bees, butterflies, ladybirds! So many insects are out and about in our native meadows. This puzzle book is full of little informative texts, animal stickers and pictures to colour in which not only educate but also promote early awareness about the environment and conservation. The pedagogical concept works through age-appropriate tasks and a clear structure: true-to-nature picture book illustrations on the left-hand side with a short factual text that can be read aloud or independently, plus a quiz question, then on the right-hand side are stickers and a puzzle to colour in. Testing knowledge is good. But this goes further: encouraging children to be inquisitive and imaginative about nature. At the end each animal sticker book with the little honey bee will look different. However you want it to be.

The book "I Love You..." is part of the trilogy..., "I love you, till death..." and "I love you, as long as my heart beats”, autobiographical love novels which include chapters from life in a couple of the writer Julien Tănase and his wife, Magdi, with whom he has been in a relationship for 30 years, all against the background of the events that Romania has gone through in recent decades, after the Revolution of '89. A trilogy about the endurance over time of a young couple in love, who have gone through events that are out of touch with reality in Romania where sleeping with a gun under the pillow, the fear of having their child kidnapped, and even the "wars" waged against the corruption of magistrates, politicians and the information systems of a civil society gripped by the widespread corruption in Romania, including the lawsuit invented by the DNA (National Anticorruption Directorate) to stop his work as a journalist and finally won by the writer, makes the autobiography of writer Julien Tănase a fascinating one that leaves you with a bitter taste in your mouth and a big question mark; ... "such things have happened and continue to happen in Romania"?... The writer Julien Tănase: "A friend in the Italian Police told me, and I quote him: "... if you had done in Italy what you did for your country, today a street would bear your name! But you had been dead!"

Mögen Sie Rosenkohl? Lieben Sie Brokkoli? Oder ist Fleisch Ihr Gemüse? Dass die Geschmäcker verschieden sind, ist eine Binsenweisheit. Aber nirgendwo sind die Vorlieben und Abneigungen so ausgeprägt wie beim Essen und so immun gegen gute Argumente. Nicht nur Eltern wissen davon ein Lied zu singen. Warum ist das so? Und was können wir tun, um anders, besser, zu essen? Bee Wilson hat sich auf eine spannende Reise zu den Ursprüngen unserer Ernährungsgewohnheiten begeben, mit der neuesten Forschungsliteratur sowie ihren eigenen Erfahrungen als Mutter von drei Kindern im Gepäck. Sie hat mit Psychologen und Ernährungsexperten gesprochen, Schulkantinen besucht und zahlreiche »Essbiographien« zusammengetragen. Das Ergebnis ist so lehrreich wie ermutigend: Geschmack ist kein Schicksal. Welche Speisen wir mögen, ob wir essen wie ein Spatz oder wie ein Scheunendrescher, ist uns nicht in die Wiege gelegt. Wir lernen es, und zwar in der Kindheit, am Esstisch der Familie, unter Einfluss zahlreicher Faktoren. Und wir können umlernen. Bee Wilson zeigt uns in ihrem neuen Buch, wie das geht, ohne dabei aus den Augen zu verlieren, was vielleicht das Wichtigste ist: die Freude am Essen.

Sun Li, the protagonist of the novel, is a bestseller writer and his wife Xizi is the head of a university library. Their son Sun Yichi has been rebellious and unruly since childhood, remaining distant from his mother. Afraid of the exhaustion of his creativity, the middle-aged Sun Li begins to question the meaning of his writings. He thus suffers from serious insomnia and anxiety. Just at this time, his wife Xizi begins to have her own amorous secrets. Sun Li also finds himself unable to leave Li Qiao, director of New Evening Paper. These affairs have pushed their seemingly peaceful family life to the verge of collapse. The love calendar refers to the calendar that belongs only to Sun Li and his wife Xizi for their love. But such turbulent life experience has caused them to temporarily betray their love calendar … They eventually begin again the first year of their love calendar. Through the depiction of the love, marriage, and family life of Sun Li and Xizi, the novel becomes a retrospection of the spiritual tendency, emotional development and love pattern of the Chinese over the past 20 to 30 years. It also vividly outlines the changes of social mores in China over the past years in a figurative way. Even amorous entanglements are not devoid of elements of the officialdom, with honest and corrupt officials still on the scene. According to Wang Yuewen, this is an element of reality rather than of officialdom – “after all nobody can live in a vacuum space”.

Based on award-winning research, Love and revolution brings classical and contemporary anarchist thought into a mutually beneficial dialogue with a global cross-section of ecological, anti-capitalist, feminist and anti-racist activists - discussing real-life examples of the loving-caring relations that underpin many contemporary struggles. Such a (r)evolutionary love is discovered to be a common embodied experience among the activists contributing to this collective vision, manifested as a radical solidarity, as political direct action, as long-term processes of struggle, and as a deeply relational more-than-human ethics. This book provides an essential resource for all those interested in building a free society grounded in solidarity and care, and offers a timely contribution to contemporary movement discourse.

When love has wandered off by Edna Buchman Edna Buchman's work will immediately inspire its readers. These texts are simply amusing or sad anecdotes, of the kind known all too well to every woman. The first part of the book focuses on situations between women and men, some of which actually happened and others that almost did… Men analyzed from a woman's perspective, examined by her critical eye, frankly and with appealing humor. The second part of the book consists of very personal, revealing stories: childhood spent in a home where the only thing missing was a caressing hand; the eternal struggle against overweight caused by overeating, as a compensation for the lack of love. The book concludes with a selection of texts of a different nature, dealing with coming of age, forgiveness, and happiness. The natural humanity of this lyrical collection will win the heart of every woman, and probably of quite a few men as well… Edna Buchman was born in Israel to German-speaking parents; the family immigrated to Israel in 1939. She is the third generation of a textile-manufacturing family, and was educated in Israel, Switzerland and England. The author drew her inspiration from personal observations of the lives of her friends... single, married, divorced and widowed. "A book like Edna Buchmann’s Die Wandernde Liebe will certainly speak to a fair amount of people, since it describes poetically some of the emotional pitfalls and typical dynamics between romantically involved couples… Just the emotional ups and downs of a woman in her romantic encounters, sharply observed, with a hefty pinch of feminism. It is well written, quite sensitively, with some subtle humor and some nice, unexpected turns." Matthias Schossig, a noted German-English translator, California.

Anti-hero, and a would-be lover whose longing turns him into a buffoon: Prokopiev’s book is, surprisingly, a very English type. Heir to Shakespeare’s Bottom, Henry Fielding’s trickster Tom Jones, and even Kingsley Amis’s Lucky Jim, he could also share a pint or two with the deprecating genii loci of today’s British poetry: Alan Brownjohn’s Ludbrooke, Christopher Reid’s Mr Mouth or one of Hugo Williams’s frank self-portraits. But Peeper also belongs to the wider family of “the little man”, struggling under a weight of circumstance he has no notion how to negotiate. Living among, without managing to live by, conventions, the Peeper is a descendent of that wry Everyman who has suffered and been compromised since mediaeval times. He is a Good Soldier Svejk, a Charlie Chaplin, more than he is a Humbert Humbert or an Alexander Portnoy.

Scale insects feed on plant juices and can easily be transported to new countries on live plants. They sometimes become invasive pests, costing billions of dollars in damage to crops worldwide annually, and farmers try to control them with toxic pesticides, risking environmental damage. Fortunately, scale insects are highly susceptible to control by natural enemies so biological control is possible. They have unique genetic systems, unusual metamorphosis, a broad spectrum of essential symbionts, and some are sources of commercial products like red dyes, shellac and wax. There is, therefore, wide interest in these unusual, destructive, beneficial, and abundant insects. The Encyclopedia of Scale Insect Pests is the most comprehensive work on worldwide scale insect pests, providing detailed coverage of the most important species (230 species in 26 families, 36% of the species known). Advice is provided on collection, preservation, slide-mounting, vouchering, and labelling of specimens, fully illustrated with colour photographs, diagrams and drawings. Pest species are presented in two informal groups of families, the 'primitive' Archaeococcids followed by the more 'advanced' Neococcids, covered in phylogenetic order. Each family is illustrated and diagnosed based on features of live and slide-mounted specimens, with information on numbers of genera and species, main hosts, distribution, and biology. For the important pest species, coverage includes information on the morphology of live and slide-mounted specimens, common names, principal synonyms, geographical distribution, plant hosts, plant damage and economic impact, reproductive biology, dispersal, and management strategies including biological, cultural and chemical control, sterile insect techniques, regulatory control, early warning systems and field monitoring. An additional complete list of scale insect pests worldwide is provided, comprising 642 species in 28 scale insect families (about 8% of the 8396 species of living scales known), with information on plant hosts, geographical distribution and validation sources. Beneficial uses of scale insects as sources of red dyes, natural resins and waxes, as agents for invasive weed control. The importance of their honeydew to bees for making honey, and as a food source to other animals, are included. Academic researchers, students, entomologists, pest management officials in agribusiness or government including plant quarantine identifiers, extensionists, farmers, field scientists and ecologists will all benefit from this book.
