Reviews

This long-awaited methodology book is definitely a book I'd like to keep on my shelf and use as my go-to-guide for many years to come. Defeng Li, University of Macau, China I definitely recommend this book both as an introduction to quantitative research in Translation Studies, and as a 'go-to' guide for everyone using statistics in their research. It not only provides references to real research, but also allows the readers to understand the concepts within a context they can relate to. (...) the book has all the necessary ingredients to become a reference guide for any scholar in Translation and Interpreting (T&I) studies involved in quantitative research. - Carla Parra Escartin, Dublin City University, Ireland, The Journal of Specialised Translation It is a must read for T&I researchers, especially postgraduate and doctoral students, and definitely represents a valuable and precious contribution to the T&I methodological literature. Chao Han, Southwest University, China The Interpreter and Translator Trainer
