This book was translated by Thomas Braatz and is essential reading for anyone interested in understanding the true nature of the honeybee and the contemporary crisis of the beehive. In 1923 Steiner predicted the dire state of the honeybee today. The fact that over sixty percent of the American honeybee population has died during the past ten years and that this same phenomena is occurring around the world should urge our Attention to the importance of the issues discussed in these lectures.
