Trade Review“[T]his book makes a valuable contribution to the field of technology implementation in T&I contexts as it sufficiently documents recent technological advances that address practitioners’ needs, and brings forward ingenious proposals for university teaching with usage of e-tools and resources. It also injects new vigour to research by suggesting new directions, by introducing inventive applications and taxonomies and by calling for studies of different natures and the use of modern experimental techniques.” -Maggie Hui, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, in The Journal of Specialised Translation, Iss. 31 (2019) pp. 229-231
