"Jikji is the world's oldest extant book printed with movable metal type. A proud item of Korean cultural heritage, the book was inscribed in 2001 on UNESCO's Memory of the World Register.... Our new publication, Light from the East, Jikji III mainly covers how the book was introduced to France, and later back to Korea, with a focus on the human stories behind the process." --
