'Absolutely up-to-date and state of the art in the practical as well as theoretical aspect of translation, this new edition of Becoming a Translator retains the strength of the first edition while offering new sections on current issues. Bright, lively and witty, the book is filled with entertaining and thoughtful examples; I would recommend it to teachers offering courses to beginning and advanced students, and to any translator who wishes to know where the field is today.' - Malcolm Hayward, Indiana University of Pennsylvania 'A very useful book...I would recommend it to students who aim at a career in translation as a valuable introduction to the profession and an initiation into the social and transactional skills which it requires.' - Mike Routledge, Royal Holloway, University of London
Douglas Robinson is currently associate Professor of English at the University of Mississippi.
