Nobel Prize-winning scientist Karl von Frisch — best known for his groundbreaking research into honeybee communication — presents the fundamental principles of biology in a manner that is at once accessible to the curious layperson and intellectually satisfying to the trained scientist, drawing on the natural world to illuminate life's most profound mechanisms.\n\nTranslated from the German by Elsa B. Lowenstein, the text retains the elegance and precision of von Frisch's original prose, weaving together observations on animal behaviour, physiology, and the interconnectedness of living systems into a cohesive and compelling narrative. Von Frisch argues that a true understanding of biology is not merely academic — it is essential to understanding our own place in the tapestry of life. For anyone who has ever paused to wonder at the complexity hidden within a beehive or the turning of a leaf toward the sun, this volume offers answers that are as beautiful as the questions themselves.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49210281459931,"sku":"2026200014738-SECONDHAND","price":25.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/7b913c25-5b72-4bb3-b94e-b2e38980f5d6.png?v=1788268734","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200014738-secondhand-about-biology","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
