Excellent range of topics and modern relevance,

This review is from: Translating into Success: Cutting-Edge Strategies for Going Multilingual (Paperback)
Having worked in the L10N industry for 10 years, I found this book to be an excellent compendium of interesting and relevant information on a wide range of topical issues. The book covers basic cross-cultural adaptation, language management, localization techniques, tools and automation. Of particular interest to anyone facing large-scale globalization and internet issues will be Rose Lockwood's article on CaterPillar's Machine Translation (MT) and Controlled Authoring (I've been digging for this kind of information for a while), Carmen Lange and Winfield Bennett's study of MT and and Translation Memory at Baan, Gary Jaekel's coverage of Terminology Management at Ericsson, and a very timely piece by Susan Cheng of Idiom on the globalization of e-Commerce sites. On the down-side I would liked to have seen more of BiDirectional L10N and I18N issues, and respository-based translation, but that's a small criticism on balance. This is a book that can be recommended for seasoned professionals and people who are new to the L10N, I18N aspects of globalization, or for anyone who just wants to appreciate the range of issues that face companies who need to provide culutrally appropriate content cheaply, efficiently and of sufficient quality. Well done!
