Book excerpt: Anthony Daemond is an ant who longs for adventure far away from the humdrum routine of working in the tunnels. When a gang of slavemaker ants attack his colony, adventure unexpectedly finds him. A group of impressive warriors from The Great Hive arrive just in time to save the colony, ending this battle but signaling the beginning of the danger and excitement to come. Anthony, his best friend Celia, and Artie, his pet aphid, begin a quest that they hope will lead to their destiny. That is, until their path crosses with Iriana the Terrible, the newly crowned queen of wasps and hornets. Iriana's thirst for power and vengeance has set a terrible plan into motion, and she's willing to destroy anything and anyone that gets in her way. Bent on total control of the kingdom, and backed by an army of ruthless wasps and hornets, Iriana begins a campaign for dominance that can only lead to tragedy. Will Anthony and Celia reach their destination? Will they defy the perilous snares that await them? Or will they be too late? Readers will be spellbound by The Great Hive: A Real Hero, the first in an action-packed trilogy by author Joseph Pellegrino. Anthony may just be an ant, but sometimes good things come in small packages.

Download or read book Hive Mind written by Garett Jones and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2015-11-11 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last few decades, economists and psychologists have quietly documented the many ways in which a person's IQ matters. But, research suggests that a nation's IQ matters so much more. As Garett Jones argues in Hive Mind, modest differences in national IQ can explain most cross-country inequalities. Whereas IQ scores do a moderately good job of predicting individual wages, information processing power, and brain size, a country's average score is a much stronger bellwether of its overall prosperity. Drawing on an expansive array of research from psychology, economics, management, and political science, Jones argues that intelligence and cognitive skill are significantly more important on a national level than on an individual one because they have "positive spillovers." On average, people who do better on standardized tests are more patient, more cooperative, and have better memories. As a result, these qualities—and others necessary to take on the complexity of a modern economy—become more prevalent in a society as national test scores rise. What's more, when we are surrounded by slightly more patient, informed, and cooperative neighbors we take on these qualities a bit more ourselves. In other words, the worker bees in every nation create a "hive mind" with a power all its own. Once the hive is established, each individual has only a tiny impact on his or her own life. Jones makes the case that, through better nutrition and schooling, we can raise IQ, thereby fostering higher savings rates, more productive teams, and more effective bureaucracies. After demonstrating how test scores that matter little for individuals can mean a world of difference for nations, the book leaves readers with policy-oriented conclusions and hopeful speculation: Whether we lift up the bottom through changing the nature of work, institutional improvements, or freer immigration, it is possible that this period of massive global inequality will be a short season by the standards of human history if we raise our global IQ.

Download or read book Quest for the First Hive written by Verity Jenkins and published by Mark Jenkins. This book was released on 2021-05-01 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ray and her “Fa” were a pair of storytellers. One day Fa was not there for story-time; he had gone off to a faraway land where Ray could not reach him. To cheer themselves up, Ray and her Mum went to the Toronto Zoo to visit Tum the orphan Giraffe. Ray has a special gift: she can interpret sound waves into feelings and words. In this way she learns of a corporate plot to genetically modify bees. How can she save the pollinators? Who would believe her? How can a 12-year-old girl warn the Queen of the Queen bees in the heart of Africa about the plot to modify her genetic code so that in the future bees will only pollinate trademarked crops? Can she go on this Quest and get out of this funk that she’s in? Especially with a risk-averse Mum who is only interested in Sufi dancing, meditation, macrobiotic diets and the inner journey. You just can’t do it without a little mischief and misdirection and many allies along the way. Ray spins such a convincing tale that even her teacher, Mrs. MacFiercesome gives her permission to go on an extended field trip. Ray enlists Zhabbo, an old Kung San friend of her Father’s and after she comes clean about her web of deception, her Mother agrees to accompany her to Africa. They fly into Windhoek and spend the summer holidays with the legendary medicine man uLangalibalela; on a trek across the desert with a honey-guide named Tuliliki, eventually solving the mystery of a ship's anchor in the desert, which points to the location of the First Hive. Along the way they confront their fears and meet magical allies; a praying mantis that sacrifices its life protecting them from the drone's attack; a meerkat that shows them the entrance to the First Hive and a honey badger that puts bees to sleep with its farts. Just when it looks like all is lost, Ray finally meets the Queen of Queens and warns her of the plot to alter her DNA. Ray returns to school after the summer holidays with a little more confidence, a promise to be less deceptive in the future -- and a pet meerkat! For the young and young at heart who wish to enjoy a lively romp through the great Kalahari desert, seen through the eyes of an altruistic and mischievous young storyteller.
