Summary:
"Hong Kong apothecary" transports to the world of Eastern medicine, with oils, powders, pills, and cures for every known ailment from impotency to opium addiction. As peculiar as "pink pills for pale people" are the packages containing these medicaments. Author Simon Go has combed manufacturers , shops, and home medicine cabinets for years collecting the most compelling examples. The result is a visual cabinet of curiosities, a graphical pharmacopoeia. Divided by type – such as ointments, herbal teas, infused oils – "Hong Kong apothecary" presents the graphics and descriptions of hundreds of medicines and gives an insight into Chinese customs afforded only by examining the artifacts and customs of everyday life.

Summary:
The scale of Wolf’s vision alternates between the grand and the intimate, capturing both the striking facades of the buildings themselves and the minute human interventions that mark them. Wolf’s photographs reflect a deft combination of Western aesthetic formalism and Eastern wabi-sabi. The accompanying texts by Kenneth Baker and Douglas Young explore the choices people make of lifestyle, forms, functions, identity and design, as well as the notion of Hong Kong as a brand.
