This book offers an interdisciplinary, multilingual, and data-rich investigation of how different types of metaphor are translated in scientific discourse. A treasure trove for scholars and students in both translation studies and metaphor studies which has long been overdue. -Lettie Dorst, Leiden University, The Netherlands
