[South China was once home to vast subtropical forests that stretched from the eastern Himalayas to Indochina and beyond, a region of phenomenal biological diversity now undergoing rapid urbanisation and human population growth. Sadly, tens of thousands of orchids are harvested from the remaining forest fragments each year to fuel the horticultural and medicinal plants trade. Like the tiger, saola, Irrawaddy dolphin and giant ibis, orchids have become an icon for the conservation of this biodiversity hotspot. The tiny territory of Hong Kong at its far eastern margin is a microcosm of its irreplaceable diversity and conservation needs. A total of 133 species of orchid have been recorded in Hong Kong. For the first time, this book compiles images and data on all 97 extant local species in the format of a full-colour, easy-to-use, quick reference field guide. With growing appreciation for the importance of a healthy and resilient ecosystem to support and enrich our lives, it is hoped that this book will inspire respect for these natural treasures and strengthen the resolve to protect the breathtaking landscapes in which they occur.].

Softcover. Condition: gut. 1995. Das Tao Te Ching (Dao De Jing), einer der wichtigsten Klassiker der chinesischen Kultur, liegt mit diesem sehr schön illustrierten Band in einer neuen Bearbeitung und Übersetzung vor. Die besondere Qualität dieser Ausgabe ist darin zu sehen, daß hier unter maßgeblicher Mitwirkung des englischen Dichters Jay Ramsay eine moderne, poetische Form geschaffen wurde, die dem Geist des Originals so nah wie möglich kommt und gleichzeitig einen ganz neuen Zugang zu diesem Text eröffnet. Der Band enthält neben der deutschen Übersetzung auch den chinesischen Text, kalligraphiert von Kwok-Lap Chan.Laotse (auch Lao-tzu oder Lao Tan), der berühmteste Philosoph des Taoismus, lebte im 6. Jahrhundert v. Chr. Über sein Leben ist wenig bekannt. Der Legende nach kam es einmal zu einem Zusammentreffen mit seinem kongenialen Zeitgenossen Kungtse (Konfuzius). Laotse stammte aus dem Dorf Hu-hsien in Ch'u, der heutigen Provinz Honan und war Archivar am Hof des Königs von Chou, bevor er sich nach Westen zurückzog; hier verlieren sich sein Spuren. Richard Wilhelm (1873-1930), Pfarrer, Pädagoge und Missionar, Professor für Sinologie, Übersetzer und Herausgeber, hielt sich 1899-1921 und 1922-1924 in China auf. Er gab 1910-1930 die Quellensammlung "Religion und Philosophie Chinas" heraus. Seine Übersetzungen chinesischer Klassiker sind legendär, haben sich seit Jahrzehnten als Standard etabliert und wurden ihrerseits in viele Sprachen übertragen. In deutscher Sprache. 191 pages. 27,4 x 19,5 x 1,9 cm.
