About the author

Ma Jianqiang: publicly available information is limited, and only three of his works are currently known to be included in the collection, commonly classified under education and applied psychology. His representative achievement, the twelve-volume "Seventy Years of Pedagogy in the People's Republic of China," reviews the development of Chinese pedagogy in a multi-volume format, with a separate volume on special education, indicating his involvement in that field as well. Another work, "Embracing Emotions: Why Am I Unhappy," addresses general readers and discusses emotions and psychological experience, showing that his writing extends beyond academic history of education into popular psychology. Overall, his works combine the organization of educational history with applied psychology: the former emphasizes a systematic review of disciplinary development, while the latter focuses on accessible understanding of everyday emotions. Since details such as dates of birth and death, nationality, education, and professional positions remain unconfirmed, no inferences are made here; this introduction is based solely on the works and categories available in the collection.
