[Purpose/significance] To improve the inadequacy of the current book evaluation system in reflecting the quality of book content, book review indicators are adopted into the evaluation system, and different disciplines of book are applied to analyze the adaptability of the evaluation system to explore the evaluation of Chinese book quality.[Method/process] Sixteen indicators were selected from traditional measurement indicators, Altmetrics indicators and book review indicators to construct a comprehensive evaluation system for Chinese books empowered by the CRITIC method, while economics, computer science and physics books were selected for an empirical study to analyze the utility of book review indicators in book quality evaluation and to test the adaptability of the evaluation system in evaluating books of different disciplines.[Result/conclusion] The empirical results show that the comprehensive evaluation system of Chinese books has good adaptability for books of different disciplines, and the evaluation results can complement the influence and quality of books reflected by total citations and libcitations; the book review indicators can reflect the reading tendency of readers in different disciplines, and help screen out disciplinary books with high readability, scientificity and knowledge, thus providing reference for book quality evaluation activities such as reading promotion and bibliographic recommendation.
