“Introducing Interpreting Studies has been for the past 12 years the canon for interpreting studies, providing a comprehensive and insightful description of all types of interpreting. Written by a leading authority in the field, the book is well structured, well written and well referenced. This edition is an updated and improved version of an already excellent book and will undoubtedly continue to hold its place as the Interpreting textbook for many years to come.” Sandra Hale, University of New South Wales, Australia.
