Three characteristics of the book are cited here. Firstly, it is a book of systematization and comprehensiveness. In the book, the authors give an introduction of the history and evolution of the 3genera’s construction, and express reliable facts and reasons to the existence independently of the monotypic genus Sinocalycanthus found in China only. Then the authors give chapters on anatomy, pollen morphology, reproduction biology, chromosome karyotype, chemical classification, plant taxonomy, geographic distribution and evolution, phytocoenology, propagation and cultivation, etc.
The second characteristic of the book is that the authors are good users of the comparative method for solving complicated and difficult problems.
“Wax Shrubs in World” possesses its third characteristic-it reflects the spirit of close connection between theory and practice and the scientific manner of respecting facts strictly.
