About the author

Sun Li, about whom limited public information is available, has writings that mainly span two fields: historical reading and medicine. Among her historical works, she participated in the "Western Regions Travel Series," which centers on Stein's expeditions in the Western Regions and includes titles such as The Khotan Oasis and Surveying the Niya Ruins; in a fifteen-volume format it presents related travel accounts and expedition records, offering readable texts for understanding the history and geography of the Western Regions. She is also the author of Selected Ancient Prescriptions for Vertigo, which shows an attention to traditional medical literature and clinical experience. Judging from her extant works, Sun Li's writing combines the organization of historical sources with the compilation of practical knowledge; her subjects cross the humanities and medicine, and her style tends toward the documentary and informative, making her work suitable for readers interested in the history of the Western Regions or in classical Chinese medical prescriptions.
