Chris Smout, BRISC This excellent survey by our leading bumblebee biologist covers all aspects of the life of these fascinating insects ... The expert will surely find much to admire, and the non-expert like myself much to learn that is lucidly explained.

Bees for Development This text provides an excellent review of bumble bee biology and behaviour.
