| 500 ## - GENERAL NOTE |
|---|
| General note |
"As beautiful as flowers appear to the human eye, their sensual display is designed to seduce pollinators - the majority of which are bees - to fulfil their primary purpose of reproduction. Photographer Craig P. Burrows has spent the last ten years photographing flowers bathed in ultraviolet light - the same part of the spectrum that makes bee vision special. Here we can peek into a secret world of brilliant colours and dazzling light, otherwise invisible to you and me, so that we might better understand the life of a bee. An accompanying text from some of the world's leading bee, pollination and medical experts explores our unfolding knowledge of the power of nature and the extraordinary role the honeybee plays in the future vitality, immunity and longevity of humankind"--Book jacket front flap. |
