园林是自然与人工的结合，既是对自然的模拟，于方寸之间显露自然的意趣；也是对自然的加工，一草一木都能显出造园者匠心独运。中国园林把假山鱼池、亭台楼阁等人工布局与大自然的花草树木、清风明月浓缩在一起，创造了人与自然和谐相处的艺术生活。中国园林之美，在于它熔文化、艺术于一炉。中国古典园林是怎样形成与发展的？中国园林有哪几种不同的类型，它们又具有什么样的共同与相异的特征？中国园林在长期的实践中积累了哪些经验，形成了什么样的造园理论？在本书中能找到答案。
Huang Hua just celebrated his 96th birthday. A graduate of Yenching University, he is a typical Chinese progressive intellectual of his time. In old China the suffering of the common people and the pressing danger of losing the sovereignty of the entire nation led Huang Hua and millions of young people to join the struggle for China’s liberation. Huang Hua’s memoir is a book describing his more than 70 years of activities as a revolutionary and a diplomat. It reflects also many significant aspects of China’s modern political history. In his posts as ambassador and foreign minister he witnessed a great range of events in international relations and participated in the realization of the foreign policy of New China. As to the book’s style of writing, it is just like the character of the author-clear and straightforward, so it is easy to read and comprehend.
