Description
Book SynopsisRoutledge Interpreting Guides cover the key settings or domains of interpreting and equip trainee interpreters and students of interpreting with the skills needed in each area of the field.

"This is a landmark textbook.

"This book contains a unique blend of theory and practice that is rare in academic publications. Its breadth and depth are truly impressive. Most innovative are the recommended activities in each chapter, focusing on research, performance skills and collaborative dimensions. Instructors and learners alike will find this work extremely useful." Holly Mikkelson, Middlebury Institute of International Studies at Monterey, USA
