Post subject: Where to buy Guide Books to asia?

Does anyone know if it is possible to buy lonely planet or rough guides to south east asia anywhere in Shanghai? I'm looking for a general guide, or any specific country guides to vietnam, laos and cambodia.

Thanks

I have seen Lonely Planet guides on the first floor of the Foreign Language Bookstore on Fuzhou Lu, I think they are pretty expensive though, but at least available if that's what you are after.

Thanks. Managed to find what I was looking for in the main Shanghai bookstore which is near the Foreign Language store. The top floor has a wide selection of English books and some guidebooks. For others looking for guidebooks, I should mention that this place must get regular deliveries because although they didn't have the asia lonely planet when I first went earlier this week, I visited again yesterday and they had it in stock. I also saw some guidebooks available in City Supermarket in the Shanghai Centre.
