李永宁

Li Yongning is an author whose works span a notably wide range of subjects. Five of his books are included in the collection, covering history, biography, inspirational personal growth, and finance. His representative work, Between Image and Text: Dunhuang History in Steles, Murals, and Documents, tells the history of Dunhuang by cross-checking visual and textual materials, reflecting a dual interest in historical sources and visual evidence. He has also written biographies and books on the thought of figures such as Kazuo Inamori, Li Ka-shing, Warren Buffett, and Charlie Munger, introducing their life experience, management philosophy, and investment wisdom to general readers. Because public information is limited, his nationality, dates of birth and death, education, and personal history cannot be confirmed. Judging from the existing works, however, he is skilled at combining historical research with accessible storytelling, presenting topics from different fields in clear, plain language that is both informative and readable, making the books suitable for newcomers.
