Lexicography in Asia

Lexicography in Asia
was edited by Tom McArthur and Ilan Kernerman, and appeared in 1998. It is the first attempt to publish a comprehensive collection of essays on this subject, and features papers from the landmark Dictionaries in Asia conference, held in Hong Kong in 1997, and other relevant papers.
The authors – from China, Japan, Korea, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Iran, and Israel – are described in the Postscript by Reinhard Hartmann as being "among the pioneers in each of their countries and fields … [who] not only bring to lexicography new ideas … but collectively help to correct the impression … that lexicography is a uniform discipline with a Eurocentric base."
