Another Chinese edition?

edit

The listed 2012 Chinese edition 数学指南:实用数学手册 is clearly based on the German Teubner-Taschenbuch der Mathematik and thus belongs to the "Zeidler branch". However, Springer (the current owner of that branch) did not mention a Chinese edition in the foreword of the various 2013 editions. However, a Chinese edition is mentioned in the 2015/2016 catalog of the current owner of the "Musiol and Mühlig branch", Europa-Lehrmittel. But why should they mention a translation of a losely related work by their competitor? Therefore, it is possible that they are referring to an earlier Chinese edition under a yet unknown title, which would belong into the "Musiol and Mühlig branch". If you know additional editions (in either language), please add them to the list. Eventually, this should become a complete list of all translations and derivations of "Bronshtein and Semendyayev". --Matthiaspaul (talk) 19:01, 27 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

In the newer 2017 and 2020 catalogs, Europa-Lehrmittel indicates the status of the Chinese edition as "in preparation". So, it's possible that there will be two independent Chinese "Bronshteins" in the future. --Matthiaspaul (talk) 11:04, 28 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
The 2020 "Foreign Rights" catalog still listed "Chinese" as "in preparation"[1][2], however, the 2022 edition now lists the "Pocket Book of Mathematics" as available in six languages (besides German): Chinese, English, Hungarian, Polish, Serbian and Slovenian [3]. (I couldn't find a copy of their 2021 Foreign Rights catalog to look at, but it existed.)

The Chinese edition was published in December 2020. Added. --Matthiaspaul (talk) 03:45, 27 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
