About the author

Gu Wei — public information about this author is limited, and it is currently known only that three works are extant, spanning the fields of management, medicine, and youth literature. Principles and Practice of Management addresses the theoretical study and practical operation of management, reflecting an approach that combines principles with concrete application. Rambling Talks on Chinese Medicine: Romance of Materia Medica explains knowledge of Chinese medicine and materia medica in an accessible style, balancing popular science with narrative and showing the author's interest in traditional medical culture. Since Youth Cannot Be Retained turns to youth literature, writing about the emotions and experiences of youthful years. These three works cross markedly different fields, reflecting the diversity of Gu Wei's subjects and an effort to reach different readerships. As information on birth and death dates, nationality, education, and professional experience remains unclear, the author's background awaits further documentation, and current understanding of the person and the writing rests mainly on the three works mentioned above.
