520 2  "Bees are essential for human survival--one-third of all 
       food on American dining tables depends on the labor of 
       bees. Beyond pollination, the very idea of the bee is 
       ubiquitous in our culture: we can feel buzzed; we can 
       create buzz; we have worker bees, drones, and Queen bees; 
       we establish collectives and even have communities that 
       share a hive-mind. In Buzz, authors Lisa Jean Moore and 
       Mary Kosut convincingly argue that the power of bees goes 
       beyond the food cycle, bees are our mascots, our models, 
       and, unlike any other insect, are both feared and revered.
       In this fascinating account, Moore and Kosut travel into 
       the land of urban beekeeping in New York City, where 
       raising bees has become all the rage. We follow them as 
       they climb up on rooftops, attend beekeeping workshops and
       honey festivals, and even put on full-body beekeeping 
       suits and open up the hives. In the process, we meet a 
       passionate, dedicated, and eclectic group of urban 
       beekeepers who tend to their brood with an emotional and 
       ecological connection that many find restorative and 
       empowering. Kosut and Moore also interview professional 
       beekeepers and many others who tend to their bees for 
       their all-important production of a food staple: honey. 
       The artisanal food shops that are so popular in Brooklyn 
       are a perfect place to sell not just honey, but all manner
       of goods: soaps, candles, beeswax, beauty products, and 
       even bee pollen. Buzz also examines media representations 
       of bees, such as children's books, films, and consumer 
       culture, bringing to light the reciprocal way in which the
       bee and our idea of the bee inform one another. Partly an 
       ethnographic investigation and partly a meditation on the 
       very nature of human/insect relations, Moore and Kosut 
       argue that how we define, visualize, and interact with 
       bees clearly reflects our changing social and ecological 
       landscape, pointing to how we conceive of and create 
       culture, and how, in essence, we create ourselves."--
