About the author
Gong Jian is an author about whom limited public information is available; his nationality, dates of birth and death, and educational background are not clearly recorded. Judging from the six works held in the collection, his writing spans two broad categories: history and inspirational personal growth. On the one hand, books such as The Whole Truth About History, Secret History of Emperors, and The Code of Ancient Greece trace Chinese and world history; on the other, works such as the Harvard Open Course: Emotional Intelligence Determines Height, Super Self-Control: Mastering Yourself Is Success, and Decoding EQ: Emotional Intelligence Determines Destiny focus on emotional management and self-improvement. His historical writing leans toward accessible narrative and popular knowledge, seeking to make complex events clear and readable, while his inspirational books address themes such as emotional intelligence and self-control in plain, everyday language. Though the two strands seem far apart, both reflect a writing orientation aimed at general readers and attentive to readability and practicality. The available material is not yet sufficient to sketch the details of his life, so readers may begin with the subjects of his works to form a basic picture of this author.
