Description:
First English edition of this classic work, translated from the German edition, Tanzsprache und Orientierung der Bienen (1965). Karl von Frisch was the world’s most renowned authority on bees. This book was his masterwork - the culmination of more than fifty years of research. It describes in non-technical language what he discovered in a lifetime of study about honeybees - their methods of orientation, their sensory faculties, and their remarkable ability to communicate with one another.
