About the author
Geng Jin is a Chinese book author about whom limited public information is available. Two works are currently listed under this name, both centered on water disasters and environmental change in the Yangtze River basin. The Wrath of the Dragon King: The 1931 Yangtze River Flood focuses on the great flood of 1931, examining the disaster and its social impact. The Water of the Yangtze: Human and Environmental Change in the Jianghan Plain, 17th–20th Centuries takes the Jianghan Plain as a case study of long-term interaction between people and the water environment from the Ming and Qing dynasties to the twentieth century. Related in subject matter and classified under world history and social and cultural studies, these works reflect an interest in disaster history, regional environmental history, and river governance. Grounded in specific historical events and regional change, they combine source-based narrative with a clear sense of inquiry and offer useful perspective on flood management and environmental transformation in the middle Yangtze region.
