Description

This volume brings both beginning and experienced translators and interpreters up to date on a broad range of issues.

The seven sections take up success and survival strategies for a language professional, including the challenges posed by the changing global economy, the impact of new technologies, adjustments required by a different legal environment and traditional ethical practices.

Such challenges and changes point to a need for continuing education and networking and for newcomers specialized postsecondary training.

The issues are as broad as the translator and interpreter's role in the modern world, as detailed as advice on setting up a workstation or choosing a degree program.

The contributors, all practicing translators and interpreters, discuss also the value of the Association and its Committees to the profession and its individual members.
