Additional information
by Larisa Jasarevic (Author)
- The author has her own website (https: //beekeepingintheendtimes.com/Home) to accompany the book, which serves as a companion with multimedia that brings in stories, images, video footage from apiaries, forage frontlines, and more. There is a documentary by the same name, which also will bolster the book's publication, that the author has worked on with her sister Azra.
- Contemporary scholarship is increasingly ecologically minded, and this book shifts the attention of current studies to Islamic sources, which are rarely read for ecological implications, and Bosnian Muslim practices.
- This book fulfills IUP's strategic goal for the global and international studies list to consider effects of environmental change on global populations.
- The target audience includes students and scholars engaged with anthropology of environment, religion, and medicine, or with multispecies ethnographies. It is of interest to those studying entomology, Islamic and religious studies, ecocriticism, and the environmental humanities broadly.
