To celebrate the publication of this timely and enthralling new book about the social, environmental and economic consequences of the world's rapidly diminishing bee population, Guardian Books are hosting a series of public events.

Authors Alison Benjamin and Brian McCallum reveal what they have discovered during their months of research for the book about the humble honeybee. The talk will discuss why the world's bees are dying out, what implications this could have on the world as we know it, and what we can do to reverse this worrying trend. This event is as suitable for the faithful beekeeper and the concerned green thinker alike.

The book focuses on the cuisine of South West France and mixes recipes with insights into the region, its people and its culture. My copy has only just arrived, but I am already hungry. Because of the nature of this book we are going to make this next meeting a potluck get together at my house in Oxford. The idea is to bring along a dish from the book (more or less) to fuel our chat. I hope it sounds good - I'm planning to put together one of the soup recipes to warm up the evening. When you know if you can make it, please send me an email and I'll send out directions to my house.
