Dear all:

I find a book very interesting, and I would like to translate it into another language(Chinese in this case),
and publish it with local publishers.

1) What is the copyright issues involved here?
2) Do I start with contacting the writer or orgin publisher of the book concerning 'buying' the copyrights?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!
