Cordwainer Smith was the pen name of Professor Paul Myron Anthony Linebarge who was a political and military advisor to the US government in Korea and Malaysia, though not Vietnam. He spent much of his time in Europe, Japan and China, following in the footsteps of his father who was a noted sinologist and apologist for the Nationalist Chinese cause. Norstrilia is Corwainer Smith's sole Science Fiction book, though there is a collection of his Instrumentality of Man stories: The Rediscovery of Man.
