This book summarizes the principal achievements of paleobotanical study
since the middle half of the nineteenth century, especially during the
forty-odd years after the founding of new China in 1949. The whole text
comprises 12 chapters. Taking geological times as the linking line, this
book discusses in separate chapters the overall features and evolutionary
history of floras in different geological periods ranging from Silurian
to Quaternary, with particular emphasis laid on the systematic analysis
and summary of composition, nature, characteristics and correlation division,
evolution and phytogeogra- pphical provinciality of those floras (based
on megafossil plants supplemented partly with fossil sporo-pollen evidence)
in different period, together with a certain number of palaeobotanical
studies displaying the distinguishing features of China
