A Short History of the Honey Bee by E Readicker-Henderson
This book explores the place of sexuality in a Hungarian vocational school. Building upon ethnographic research using a post-structuralist and intersectional theoretical framework, the author highlights the voices of teachers and students in their everyday environment and gives them the opportunity to speak about themselves and their experiences: in doing so, addressing a significant gap in the market. The author critically discusses key issues concerning schooling and sexuality, addressing such themes as LGBTQ+ youth and teachers, institutional hierarchy, and the role of sexuality in the re/production of social inequalities through education. Through these topics, she sensitively questions what should be expected of schools in preparing their students for the wider world. The intersectional approach employed by the author will appeal to scholars in a wide variety of disciplines, from gender and sexuality studies to the sociology of education and race and ethnicity studies.
Edward Readicker-Henderson is a frequent contributor to National Geographic Traveler, Sierra, and Art & Antiques; other publication credits include AARP: The Magazine, Budget Travel, and - despite his polar fleece aesthetic - Modern Bride. Best American Travel Writing honored Edward in 2007 for The Quietest Place on Earth, as well as Uses for Dirty Underwear. In 2003, the book noted Why You're Here Now, and the next year, he won a Lowell Thomas Award for Under the Protection of the Cow Demon. He's also recipient of a Northern Lights Award, for the best magazine travel story on Canada, in 2007. U.S. Poet Laureate Rita Dove remarked that his reflective style was like watching a particularly elegant sleight-of-hand. The compliment was especially apt, since Edward can also juggle five balls and eat fire.
