Rezensionen

"This volume is a valuable contribution to the literature on the subject and its inclusion in course curricula as a reference book would be commendable, not only for students of translation and interpreting but also for those in fields dealing with war studies, history, sociology of conflicts or security studies." (Vedrana Cemerin, LSE Review of Books, blogs.lse.ac.uk, September 30, 2019)
