Reviews

""In Other Words remains essential reading for every translator teacher. This revised fourth edition expands into new text genres, acknowledges the growing importance of language technologies in the profession, and highlights the ethics of care—underscoring the translator’s responsibility toward others and reaffirming the book’s status as a cornerstone work in translator education."" Nike K. Pokorn, University of Ljubljana ""The world of translation keeps evolving, and In Other Words is keeping pace. This new edition seamlessly blends the timeless foundational elements of previous editions with thoughtful guidance on key challenges facing the translation profession today, including new text types, new technologies, and new ethical considerations. The result: a classic… for the contemporary student!"" Lynne Bowker, Université Laval ""In an update of this seminal book, Mona Baker and Henry Jones have revised each chapter, adding new examples, suggested readings and references, taking account of the contemporary ubiquity of machine translation in the text and exercises. This continues to be a key text in Translation Studies."" Joss Moorkens, Dublin City University
