Reviews

This publication is a much needed contribution to translator training literature; not only does it shed light on the importance of contextualising and situating the acquisition of translator and interpreter competences, it also showcases transferable practices for the training of would-be translators and interpreters in the 21st century. - Alejandro Bolanos Garcia-Escribano, University College London - Journal of Specialised Translation
