About the author

Wang Enyong is a scholar and popular-science writer in the field of geography in China; publicly available information about his personal life is quite limited. Judging from the three works held in the collection, his writing centers on geography: there are introductory general works, What Is Geography? and its second edition, as well as Civilization and Geography, presented in the form of a lecture in the Peking University Micro-Lecture series. These works are classified under science popularization and social culture, suggesting that he cares not only about geographical knowledge and basic concepts but also about extending a geographical perspective to the evolution of civilization and issues of human culture. His writing is chiefly explanatory and accessible, aiming to make professional content clear and readable for general readers.
