Hi, I was wondering whether anyone else owns a copy of Yang Yilun's Ingenious Life and Death, vol.1. I appear to be missing pages 12-15. Though the binding wasn't all that good, I'm pretty sure I haven't just lost them, and it looks like an error with printing or binding. As I couldn't find any information about this particular error on Sensei's Library, I was wondering whether any of you also noticed this problem. [edit]:Nevermind, I found them, they're sandwhiched between later pages. Actually, it seems like most of the pages between 1-30 are just randomly inserted in the book: 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-16-17-18-19-12-13-14-15-24-25-26-27-20-21-22-23-28-29-30. Pretty weird. Is this a one time freak accident, or does this thing happen more often with Yutopian Press books? If you compare the binding with Kiseido books, there's obviously a large quality difference there. |

I think this is only a single binding error where two consecutive pieces of paper are in the wrong position. I assume 16 17 22 23 18 19 20 21 12-13 26 27 14 15 24 25 are the four affected pieces of paper. If you swap the lower two with the upper two you get: 12-13 26 27 14 15 24 25 16 17 22 23 18 19 20 21 which is the correct order. So it's definitely a binding error, but only a single and simple one. The order of the pages between 20 and 27 is a necessary consequence of moving pages 12-15 behind 19. |
