About the author

Only limited public information is available about Tian He; at present, only the Chinese name and two works in the library are known. The writing spans two categories, law and prose miscellany. In the legal field, The Measure of the Rule of Law appears, judging by its title, to concern the boundaries and standards of the rule of law, falling into the genre of legal commentary or jurisprudential discussion. On the prose side, A Book of Pauses: Leaving Some Blank Space for Yourself (Shixiangzhe Slow Life) belongs to the “Shixiangzhe Slow Life” series and centers on slowing down and leaving room in life, in a calm and introspective tone. The two works differ markedly in subject: one addresses rational reflection on institutions and rules, the other personal feeling and experience, suggesting that the author is capable of both analytical and lyrical writing. Because details of biography, nationality, and education cannot be verified, no speculation is offered here; readers may approach the works directly to learn about the author's style and concerns.
