Green cloth covers appear undamaged by whatever caused water stain other than faint loss of surface sheen to back when held at an angle. Somewhat uncommon. Needham's chapter is on translating old Chinese scientific and technical texts, Furley's is on translating Greek Philosophy. Others are on French, 'machine translation' (A.D.Booth, who claims the notion of using computers for translation originated with himself) and 'Conference Interpreting'. contributor's sig to fr.pasted.
