In a Japanese bookstore near you

Published June 14, 2006 by Robbie Allen

A reader of Windows Server Cookbook wrote in the other day to tell me he enjoyed the Japanese version of the book. The Japanese version? I didn’t know there was a Japanese version. As it turns out, yes. One of the interesting quirks of the publishing biz is that foreign subsidiaries may translate and publish a foreign edition of your book without you even knowing about it! I’ve already received German, Czech, and Russian editions of some of my books. However, none are as cool as the Japanese edition. Here is a low res picture of the cover:

One of the interesting things about the book is that it comes with a dust jacket. You know, the kind that are usually found on hardback books in the US. Well I guess in Japan they put them on paperback books too.
