Do you want to work on making this available in Japanese?I was disappointed to find you don’t have it, but maybe that is an upcoming project for me and my Japanese partner?
Dear Maiyim,
Thank you for your interest; however we are already working on the Japanese Medical and Legal Guide and Resource. Once it becomes available, we will be notifying you.
Thank you

Any chance that you could make a sample page or two of your written materials available to review before purchase? I have been frequently disappointed in the past with glossaries and other publications.
