[Bill Sleeman · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book, although a government document, is a good overview of law book publishing (in the western world) and of the Law Library of Congress' efforts to collect this important material. There is a small section devoted to the LLOC's collection of Asian materials but it feels tacked on, almost as if an afterthought. Overall, the writing style is a bit clunky but the image content is quite good.
