I have a book published at the beginning of this year.
Recently, I heard some comments about it.
From some coffee professionals, they believe that this is the best book in the market. They do not know me before they read that book. We do not meet till now.
There are also people who have no any knowledge about coffee, and after reading that book, they were excited to get into the coffee industry. Recently, there are several trainees coming for our training, just because they trust our training after reading that book.
Does it make some sense?

Very nice cover Peter. You should see if you can get it translated into other languages. English, Italian, French would be suggestions. Seems to me that there are good markets in those areas.
But, I am writing an English version of our trainee's manual, for possible trainees next month and future. To write a book, it takes a long time. I do not know when I can finish it. Try to go faster.

Good luck with this work, Peter. Sounds like things are going well so far. I've had the good fortune to be a published author of several reference books that were best-sellers in their category here in the U.S. and so know the satisfaction one experiences when finally seeing one's work in print and for sale in bookstores. Popularity and acclaim makes the feeling even better. Job well done. Congratulations!

Thanks a lot. That is what I am feeling now. It is really great. And, that is the first book in my life. It is about coffee, not about physics. Hehehe,,,
BTW, I am not the right person to write the English version. Probably I can find someone who has good knowledge of English and I can train him/her about coffee and ask him/her write the English version for us.
