Reviews for Can Theory Help Translators?: A Dialogue Between the Ivory Tower and the Wordface

... a work I will unreservedly recommend to my students. (Christine Pagnoulle, Perspectives) For practitioners, this book will be useful because it organizes a great deal of material about translation theory in a small space. For theoreticians, the book could be enlightening because it points out our lack of knowledge about so many aspects of translating. (Brian Mossop, Target)
