Bee-Master of Warrilow

Tickner Edwardes

"Is it true that a bee can only sting once?" I asked him, as he bent again over the crocus beds. 
 
He laughed. 
 
"What would be the good of a sword to a soldier," he said, "if only one blow could be struck with it? It is certainly true that the bee does not usually sting a second time, but that is only because you are too hasty with her. ...But now watch how the thing works naturally." 
 
A bee had settled on his hand as he was speaking. He closed his fingers gently over it, and forced it to sting. 
 
"Now," he continued, quite unconcernedly, "look what really happens..." (from The Bee-Master of Warrilow) 
 
The Bee-Master of Warrilow, steeped from his earliest years in the lore of his bee-keeping forefathers, is a guardian of the English bee-garden life and of the fascinating creature that is the honey bee. (Summary by Steve C)

Signals in the Noise - Security...

Timothy E Reed

Signals in the Noise: Security, Technology, and the Hidden Patterns of Modern Risk examines how clarity, judgment, and human discernment can survive in an age dominated by algorithms and information overload. 
Drawing on lessons from intelligence tradecraft, behavioral science, and crisis management, Reed explores how modern organizations can recover the habits of mind that once defined strategic thinking. Each chapter translates operational insights—from aviation and medicine to corporate command centers—into practical methods for navigating uncertainty. 
The book argues that true intelligence lies not in speed or scale, but in discernment: the ability to distinguish what matters from what merely shouts the loudest. Reed shows that the future of security depends not on better machines, but on better meaning.

Genes - A Very Short...

Jonathan Slack

In this exploration of the concept of the gene, Jonathan Slack looks at the discovery, nature, and role of genes in both evolution and development. Explaining the nature of genetic variation in the human population, how hereditary factors were identified as molecules of DNA, and how certain specific mutations can lead to disease, Slack highlights how DNA variants are used to trace human ancestry and migration, and can also be used by forensic scientists to identify individuals in crime. Slack also explores issues such as the role of genetic heritability and IQ as well as the changes that occur in the genes of populations during evolution. 
 
 
 
An ideal guide for anyone curious about what genes are and how genetics can be put to use, this Very Short Introduction demonstrates the ways in which the gene concept has been understood and used by molecular biologists, population biologists, and social scientists around the world.
