Rezensionen

"Congratulations and thanks to the editors for this much-needed work that makes an important contribution to the field of community translation, reflecting its growth as a discipline. This volume includes input from a wide range of international experts from both academia and professional practice, addressing an interesting variety of issues. This excellent work will increase the visibility of community translation as a specific area of practice, something we can be truly thankful for."

Anne Martin, University of Granada, Spain

"The 10 chapters in this very useful volume report on contemporary research in the context of community translation (CT) theory. They examine CT practice in such diverse settings as health care, criminal investigations and the documentation of life stories, and also provide valuable guidance as to how the skills necessary for effective CT can be taught. There is much to be learnt from the diverse national settings of the research reported, ranging from Australia to Japan, New Zealand and Spain."
