Sima Guang was a Chinese scholar-official and historian. He is credited with authoring ''The Comprehensive Mirror for Aid in Government'' (''[[Zizhi Tongjian|Zīzhì Tōngjiàn]]''), a history of China up to [[959]], which is regarded as the first history of China to incorporate differing accounts or interpretations of events rather than presenting a single official narrative.
