About the publisher

Founded in 1995, Tiandi Press focuses on thematic publishing, history and culture, literary works, self-help psychology, and books for young readers. Judging from the 121 titles in our database, the press has a notable strength in foreign literature and classic works: it publishes Yasunari Kawabata's Snow Country, The Old Capital, and The Izu Dancer, as well as The Last Words, a collection of short stories by Ryunosuke Akutagawa, Joseph Roth's The Radetzky March, and Shirley Jackson's We Have Always Lived in the Castle. In history, it offers Jiang Tingfu's Modern Chinese History, while social novels and social-cultural titles come from authors such as Luo Luo and Cao Yinghua. The presence of Effective Argumentation: The Most Practical Logic Training Course in American Universities also reflects the press's interest in logic training and self-help. Public information is limited, and the above reflects its publishing profile only through the titles in our database.
