If you mean CJKV version, the book was translated by my friend Mr Komatsu.
He is Chinese and got Japanese nationality. I taught him Japanese and
English.
Now he works for Basis Technology, which specializes in I18N.

I proof-read the early draft and checked てにをは.
I think the translation is far above average for オライリー・ジャパン book.

This book costs 12,800yen(+tax). I can't afford buy this book :-<
Luckily, オライリー・ジャパン sent me the book.
