About the author
Public information about Xiong Fang is limited. Her writing and editorial work spans documentary literature, computer science, and social science. Four of her works are included in the library, and the range of subjects suggests that she is equally at home with major social events such as the Japanese nuclear accident, with specialized methodological topics such as the analysis of heterogeneous gene co-expression networks, and with practical questions of work and bioethics. Representative titles include The Core Meltdown, Analysis Methods for Heterogeneous Gene Co-expression Networks, Our Reasons for Working, Reasons for Not Working, and Reasons for Being Unable to Work, and Japanese Who Choose Euthanasia. These works show a sustained attention to contemporary social issues and specialized knowledge, combining documentary narrative with clear exposition for both general and specialist readers.
