About this title

Review:

"Let me introduce you to one of the best examples of localization I have ever met. . . This Spanish transladaptation is a brand new book which, besides helping all of us, Language Services Providers, will serve also as a guide for further translations on linguistic issues. . . . Besides all its virtues, this is a beautiful book. If you love books, you know what I mean: the size, the weight, the smell, the printing, the layout, everything matters; and you will be deeply satisfied with this one, which is worth occupying a place in your shelf. Undoubtedly it will get worn soon, since you will use continuously."--Pablo Muguerza "Publishing Research Quarterly ""

Beyond its language recommendations, the "Manual de estilo Chicago-Deusto" also serves as a handbook of general practices for academic research and writing. It is my hope that this manual will be used not only for personal use, but also as a valuable classroom resource. I highly recommend the "Manual de estilo Chicago-Deusto "as a reputable guide for scholarly writing in the Spanish language. --David P. Wiseman "Hispania ""
