CJKV Information Processing: A review
CJKV Information Processing
The first thing most readers will notice about CJKV Information Processing (1999, O’Reilly & Associates) by Ken Lunde of Adobe Systems is its sheer mass. At just over 1100 pages, the volume is as large as many desk dictionaries and its size is almost guaranteed to confirm the worst fears of those predisposed to consider information processing in Chinese, Japanese, Korean and Vietnamese (CJKV) an impossible subject. CJKV Information Processing is not, however, an impossible, or even particularly difficult, book; it is well-enough written that readers might consider curling up with it in a comfortable chair—high praise indeed for any computer-oriented book, and especially for one on a topic as potentially mind-numbing as Asian text processing.
