Customer Reviews

Must-have for international software developers

Although the book is not new, and does not cover Linux/Unix and Java issues, it has been a unique source of information in my international software development. I was happy when I inherited this book from a colleague, and I keep it open on my table. It contains, for instance, all the codepages that I ever heard of.

A must have for any Int'l SW Developer/Tester

Nadine Kano also recommends the book "SW Internationalization and Localization" by Uren, Howard, Perinotti.

Excellent overview of localization

An excellent first book for students of localization, although it is highly focused. Good discussion of Windows programming and the Windows interface, dated with the arrival of NT 4.0. She covers double-byte effectively, though not in the depth you'll find in, say, Ken Lunde's O'Reilly title on Japanese. She skips over BiDirectional (the next challenge, I think) entirely. Highly recommended anyway, if for nothing else, then for the hundreds of pages of useful tables (Where else can you get the French/Arabic code page?)

A must-have book for SW Developers.

Nadine Kono, Microsoft Developer Relations Group, author of this excellent book, was one of the reviewers of the book "SW Internationalization and Localization: An Introduction" by Van Nostrand Reinhold,
