"New" book on Paris

[M.Hachadourian]

Jim and others-

While off topic on books- I was searching through booklists the other day and
came upon a book titled "The Genus Paris" by Li Heng (Science Press). I ordered a
copy and it came today. Well as the description in the catalog said the book is
all in Chinese (a good reason for me to learn it). All the species are described
in latin and with a line drawing, distribution map, and four pages of color
plates. Unfortunately the key provided for the genus is also in Chinese. The book
was  a little steep at $50 plus S&H.  The book also has extensive chapters on the
phytochemistry and anatomy of the genus.
The bookseller I bought it from said that he has another copy and that he
might be able to get more.
If any one would like more info feel free to contact me privately.

Sincerely
Marc
