The Handbook of Conference Interpreting provides a comprehensive overview of the profession at a critical juncture. Leading researchers, trainers and practitioners explore conference interpreting across regions and settings, and from many angles, including ethics, training, theory and history. The clear, jargon-free style and breadth of subject matter make it essential reading for all those with an interest in this exciting profession.
