A landmark book ".. and probably the best reference for learning about bee breeding theory and practice and the history of honey bee genetics." - Greg Hunt, Purdue University, Professor Emeritus.

"Rob Page is arguably the world's expert in honey bee breeding," This book "has all necessary information plus a good amount of the history of honey bee genetics and breeding. The book is a good and clearly written introduction into the underlying mechanisms and methods of honey bee breeding. He clarifies many misunderstandings and confusions stemming from myth, prejudice and simply ignorance of the underlying genetic mechanisms and population genetic processes." He offers "examples of both successful and unsuccessful bee breeding programs."
