Western Legal Publishers In China

Great little post to the China Law Discussion list by David Cowhig over the weekend …

He writes,  Yesterday I visited a law bookstore in Chengdu,the Tianping Falu Shudian 天平法律书店. On a big sign at the entry of the bookstore is an announcement of the Chinese language translations of the Oxford Companion to the U.S. Constitution and pf Judge Posner’s book "How Judges Think".

Both Lexis Nexis & OUP will be impressed by this .. they are obviously beginning to get a toehold on the market

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

He also notes … Atop their website at http://www.tpbook.com.cn   they have a a banner ad for Barack Obama’s book "The Audacity of Hope".

Audacity would certainly be the correct word to use in China..
