About the author

Public information about Zhang Zhiqing is limited, and his nationality, dates of birth and death, and full career cannot yet be confirmed. Judging from the three works held in the database, his writing spans medicine and bibliographic appreciation. In medicine, there are Clinical Case Reviews of Irrational Drug Use and its second edition, which focus on irrational prescribing in clinical practice and present case-based reviews for medical workers to consult and reflect on. In the field of documents, there is the four-volume Catalogue of Chongya Tang Books and Inscriptions of Chongya Tang Steles, a work of bibliography and epigraphy that reflects an interest in organizing traditional texts. The two subjects differ markedly—one is clinical practice, the other ancient catalogues—showing the author's cross-disciplinary attention. The available material is not enough to sketch his life, and further information is awaited.
