The history of the book in East Asia is closely linked to problems of language and script, problems which have also had a profound impact on the technology of printing and on the social and intellectual impact of print in this area. This volume contains key readings on the history of printed books and manuscripts in China, Korea and Japan and includes an introduction which provides an overview of the history of the book in East Asia and sets the readings in their context.

Cynthia Brokaw is Professor of History at Brown University, USA and Peter Kornicki is Professor of Japanese Studies in the Faculty of Asian and Middle Eastern Studies, University of Cambridge, UK.
