In addition to the big jpeg linked in the sibling, [1] shows the photo of a pretty hefty tome being published in both Chinese and English. I found some Chinese online retailers carrying the Chinese version for about $400, but I can’t find the English version anywhere.

As they said, it is "for studying the evolution of the moon, selecting the site for a future lunar research station and utilizing lunar resources".
