The author merits praise for her up-to-date, highly practical and wide-ranging study on [this] so far little researched subject ... I wholeheartedly recommend the book to anyone interested in professional translation quality. * Journal of Specialised Translation *\u003cbr\u003eReflections on the concept of quality are a classic in Translation Studies. Less common is the existence of work on the topic as ambitious and as true to reality as Joanna Drugan's book. Ambitious, because it examines a plethora of settings ... [a]nd realistic because the work is based on direct observation of what goes on in those settings ... [This book] is essential reading. * Parallèles *\u003cbr\u003eTo my knowledge, this is the first cross-sectional study of such a scale which mixes practices of field and traductology. The positive points are numerous: scientificity, complete coverage and a strong anchor in practice ... In three adjectives this book is scientific, illuminating and unique. * 'les notes d'owlet' blog [Bloomsbury translation] *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSeries Preface \\ Preface \\  Acknowledgements \\ Glossary of acronyms \\ Introduction \\ 1.
