About the author

Jiao Liang is an author about whom little public information is available; his nationality, dates of birth and death, and professional background have not been clearly recorded. Judging from the three works held in the collection, his writing focuses on medicine and health, covering both the popularization of classic Chinese medical texts and everyday body care. His works include The Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon in the Left Hand and the Compendium of Materia Medica in the Right Hand (color illustrated platinum edition), The Complete Guide to Women's 28-Day Body Care (color illustrated platinum edition), and Great National Physicians 3: 1,000 Effective Remedies for Various Diseases by Master Physicians of Chinese Medicine + Eighteen Health-Preservation Exercises. Most are presented as color illustrated editions or collections of remedies, introducing Chinese medical classics, care for women's physiological cycles, and experience in preventing and treating common ailments to general readers. The overall style is practical and popular-science oriented, emphasizing the translation of traditional medical theory into workable home health knowledge, and is fairly representative of books on Chinese medical health preservation.
