Rezensionen

'Jeremy Munday has over many years made significant contributions to translation theory, methodology and training. His "Evaluation in Translation" addresses yet another key concept of translational theory and practice, illuminating its pervasiveness across registers and genres. I am sure that the book will offer insights both to those interested in textuality - the product - and to those coming from the perspective of the practising translator - who ultimately are the ones creating textuality through their decision making.'

Erich Steiner, Universität des Saarlandes, Germany

'This book successfully bridges the gap between the cultural, social and political concerns of recent Translation Studies and the actual interventions made by translators at critical points in texts. A highly impressive piece of scholarship, offering a new paradigm for Translation Studies research.'
