Summary

Being among bees is a full-body experience, Mark Winston writes. Bee Time presents his reflections on three decades spent studying these remarkable creatures, and on the lessons they can teach about how humans might better interact with one another and the natural world, from the boardroom to urban design to agricultural ecosystems.

Great when it focuses on Bees

Great book but the writer is irritatingly liberal which makes some chapters very political and almost useless.

Pleasantly surprised a must read for those interested in bees and beekeepers alike

A wonderful and easy to listen too book. Very informative from an Author who cut their teeth in scientific world of bees and a wealth of knowledge on beekeeping. I would highly recommend this book.

Flat reading

A good book, however made bad by poor reading. The narration sounds like it has been computer-generated. Poor pacing, poor enunciation, and rather poor inflections. I haven't enjoyed listening to this book. I think the printed book should be more enjoyable.
