This is commercial but comes recommended, Swordfish: http://www.maxprograms.com./ if it's the sort of thing you're looking for.
Google for Computer Aided Translation will turn up a bunch of stuff to look at. One in particular is a Wikipedia article that includes links to translation tools; see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compute...ed_translation.
Best of luck, but keep in mind that computer translators are often inaccurate when translating short passages, and you are talking about an entire book. It would be worthwhile to do some research to find out which translators are the better ones.
Online language translator translates word by word, that means they search for a word, finds it's meaning and replaces with the word in original language. So this could mess-up the meaning of a full sentence.
I think, you should better search for English version of this book, which will be more appropriate thing to do.
Computer Translations still have a long way to go.
They can often get a sort of readable translation that a very good reader of English can just about follow (though sometimes not), but its very painful.
Seriously though, get the English version or pay a proper translator to do it for you; forget computers, they're just not up to it.

You're most likely going to have the best translation with
Quote:
translation memory tools (TM tools), consisting of a database of text segments in a source language and their translations in one or more target languages.
Translation memory programs store previously translated source texts and their equivalent target texts in a database and retrieve related segments during the translation of new texts.
