About the author
Public information about Jiang Man is limited, and details of the author's identity and career are not clearly documented; the available information rests mainly on the works translated and introduced. Five titles are held in the collection, spanning a considerable range of subjects: classics of political thought such as the Thomas Paine trilogy and Common Sense, works of foreign literature and historical narrative such as Twelve Years a Slave, and two biographical works, Tesla's autobiography My Inventions and a female forensic pathologist's memoir, Those Who Know the Dead. Jiang Man's work thus appears to center on the translation and introduction of foreign works, with selections balancing political theory, literary nonfiction and biography, bringing Western intellectual history and individual life experience to Chinese readers. The translator's style and editorial choices await further material for confirmation.
