Publisher's Synopsis

""New Observations On The Natural History Of Bees"" is a book written by the Swiss naturalist Fran�����ois Huber, also known as Francis Huber. The book was first published in 1806 and is considered a classic in the field of entomology. The book provides a detailed account of Huber's observations and experiments on the behavior and biology of bees. Huber's research was groundbreaking at the time, as he used a novel method of observing bees by working with them inside glass hives, which allowed him to closely observe their behavior without disturbing them. In the book, Huber describes the anatomy, physiology, and behavior of bees, including their social organization, communication, and reproduction. He also provides insights into the role of bees in pollination and the production of honey. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it suitable for both scientific and general readers. It is considered a landmark work in the history of entomology and has influenced subsequent research on bees and other social insects.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
