"This very timely book provides a comprehensive exploration of the current status of pollinators in farming and the strategies to promote pollination by insects other than honeybees. The editors, Peter Kevan and Susan Willis Chan, have assembled contributions from a large number of experts in the area of crop pollination, bee ecology and pathology.this book presents a state-of-the-art account of an essential topic and will remain a very useful resource for years to come. The Burleigh Dodds series in agricultural science aims to provide researchers with advice for sustainable food production. This volume does more than that: it will be a go-to reference not only for researchers but also for farmers and agronomists, policymakers and NGOs interested in learning about advances in techniques and protocols in promoting a crucial ecosystem service." (Book Review Published in Austral Entomology - Dr Katja Hogendoorn, The University of Adelaide, Australia) "In the time of global agricultural intensification marked by insect decline and increasing concerns about sustainability, this book provides a timely and indispensable guide to modern, pollinator-assisted sustainable crop production. The primary strength of this book lies in its integration of (agro)ecological insights with practical, pollinator protection-based farming applications, providing up-to-date and forward-looking knowledge to ecologists, agronomists, and policy-makers alike.this book offers a thorough and insightful exploration of wild and managed bees, along with their indisputable roles in sustainable agriculture.

" (Dr Zsófia Varga-Szilay, Eötvös Loránd University, Hungary - Book Review Published in Community Ecology) "Promoting pollination and pollinators in farming, edited by Professor Peter Kevan and Dr. D. Susan Willis Chan, is an excellent compendium of knowledge on the broadly understood process of pollination. This publication, prepared by many prominent specialists in pollination, offers readers a state of the art overview on the subject.In bringing this research together, the book highlights the need to protect ecosystem-valuable pollinators so that they can fulfil their role in the environment. It also gives growers practical tips on good pollinator care behaviour. In conclusion, this is an extremely valuable and much-needed publication for the whole of society." (Book Review Published in Journal of Apicultural Science - Dr Beata Panasiuk, National Institute of Horticultural Research, Poland) "This comprehensive book is a collection of writings by researchers in the area of crop pollination, bee ecology and pathology.

Every page is a dive into a subject, with almost every line a reference to a deeper dive, and the reader is directed at the end of each chapter to even further information.It doesn't matter for the curious that the style is science-write: In this age of alternative facts, the presentation of collected data here is fascinating, informative and doesn't boast of final certainty. it is carefully edited and would be a valuable addition to a reference library."
