Reviews for Honey Bee Medicine for the Veterinary Practitioner

“…this book will serve as an excellent guide. The illustrations and photos of this book are consistently brilliant and very useful, which makes the book a rich fund for giving lectures. The book probably covers all veterinarians (and other target groups, including beekeepers) need from such a compendium.” - Bee World, December 2021 ""This new book is a significant contribution to both the veterinary and beekeeping literature....Although primarily written for a North American readership, British/European veterinary professionals and beekeepers alike will find this 400-page professional textbook a valuable and comprehensive resource. The price tag is fairly high, but it is essential reading for anyone who is seriously interested in honey bee medicine and is a must-have for vet school and beekeeping association libraries."" - Vet Record, July 2022 ""Overall, this textbook is a comprehensive summary of information pertaining to honey bee medicine, with the target audience being the veterinary practitioner. While this book may [be] slightly advanced for the first-time bee doctor just dipping their toes into the area of invertebrate medicine, the book provides supplemental resources for practitioners to build their knowledge-base. This is a thorough and reliable resource for veterinarians branching out into the honey bee industry."" - Journal of Exotic Pet Medicine, January 2023
