Effective Modern C++ in Korean!

The latest translation to reach my door is another two-color version, this time in Korean. Knowing no Korean, I can't assess the quality of the translation, but I can say that during the translation process, the Korean publisher found an error in the index. That's a rare event—one that indicates that the translator and publisher were paying very close attention. I take that as a good sign.

I hope you enjoy EMC++ in Korean.

PS - O'Reilly and I fixed the indexing error in the latest release of the English edition of the book, so it's not just Korean readers who will benefit from the book's newest translation.

Effective Modern C++ in Japanese!

Another day, another translation of Effective Modern C++--this time in Japanese.

Unlike the other translations I've seen, the Japanese edition uses two colors, so it's closer in appearance to the four-color American edition. That's a nice feature. A notable difference between the Japanese translation and the English original, however, is that the Japanese version uses a lot more Kanji :-)

I hope my Japanese readers enjoy this new translation. I certainly enjoy having a copy on my bookshelf.
