I'm not the type who can read stuff online or on a pda, so I'm looking for a book to slowly read
over a year or two. For some reason I feel more comfortable with a book in hand that I can mark up
with a pencil and flip through while on the bus. I found one that interests me (I'll planning to
read the English version as well) and I found a bookstore on the internet that apparently ships
overseas from Taiwan. However, they have two versions of the book:
古都 (精)
古都
They both seem to be published in the same year, but I can't really tell what the difference is
other than the price What does 精 mean beside a book title? My Chinese is not that good yet (but
I'm going to try to read a book, I must be crazy!) and the online Chinese dictionaries have not
been of much help.

It means 精裝 (hardcover), as opposed to 平裝 (paperback).
