>--When the author is a person with a non-English name, how is it placed?
>Does one still put it "last name, first name?"
>Some examples are:
>Mao Tstung
>Issa
>Lin Yutang (Chinese)
>Nguyen Cao Dam (Vietnamese)

>Please respond directly to my e-mail address, as I have had to set LM-Net
>to 'no mail' until I get ordering and inventory done at school.
