Honeybees make decisions collectively--and democratically. Every year, faced with the life-or-death problem of choosing and traveling to a new home, honeybees stake everything on a process that includes collective fact-finding, vigorous debate, and consensus building. In fact, as world-renowned animal behaviorist Thomas Seeley reveals, these incredible insects have much to teach us when it comes to collective wisdom and effective decision making. A remarkable and richly illustrated account of scientific discovery, Honeybee Democracy brings together, for the first time, decades of Seeley's pioneering research to tell the amazing story of house hunting and democratic debate among the honeybees.
In the late spring and early summer, as a bee colony becomes overcrowded, a third of the hive stays behind and rears a new queen, while a swarm of thousands departs with the old queen to produce a daughter colony. Seeley describes how these bees evaluate potential nest sites, advertise their discoveries to one another, engage in open deliberation, choose a final site, and navigate together--as a swirling cloud of bees--to their new home. Seeley investigates how evolution has honed the decision-making methods of honeybees over millions of years, and he considers similarities between the ways that bee swarms and primate brains process information. He concludes that what works well for bees can also work well for people: any decision-making group should consist of individuals with shared interests and mutual respect, a leader's influence should be minimized, debate should be relied upon, diverse solutions should be sought, and the majority should be counted on for a dependable resolution.
An impressive exploration of animal behavior, Honeybee Democracy shows that decision-making groups, whether honeybee or human, can be smarter than even the smartest individuals in them.
Thomas D. Seeley is professor of biology at Cornell University and a passionate beekeeper. He is the author of The Wisdom of the Hive and Honeybee Ecology (Princeton).
浅显易懂,由于是神经行为科学家写的,所以看不见政治著作的吊书袋。用5个简单的规则把“蜂群民主”说清:1. 最小化组群领导者的影响力;2. 最大程度地寻找差异化解决方案;3. 用坦率批判的态度进行族群知识积累;4. 用法定人数(quorum)方法达成共识;5. 组群成员相互之间分享兴趣与尊重。

2019.7.17 蜂群达到一定数量就会进行分群(自然蜂群一般一万只),老蜂后以及一定数量的处子蜂后会带着一定的资源(蜂蜡,蜂蜜等)离开并重新组建蜂群。留下的处子蜂后会杀死未孵化的处子蜂后,如果多只处子蜂后一起孵化会发生殊死搏斗而剩下一只蜂后。 蜜蜂对于蜂巢地点的选择...
评分本书是一本介绍蜂群如何分家的书。其中本书的第三部分由西里教授提供了最精细的研究结果。 首先,我们假设一个蜂群模型中含有5万只蜜蜂,蜂群分家的第一步就是把其中的1/3也就是大概1万多只直接赶出去。随便赶到哪儿都行,比如一个树枝,一个树洞,一个岩石的缝隙。而且很有可...

评分第一个小震撼是蜂群搬家的描述。第二处是为探索蜜蜂评估可能的巢穴的方法所设计的实验,及其巧妙的行为学研究。第三处,“辩论”过程是全书精华。第四处是起飞、引路过程。 一线研究人员写的东西有带着读者一起探索的感觉,比起简单的把知识抛出来要好看得多。
