The contributions to this handbook provide a welcome and accessible overview of cognitively-oriented research, methodology and theoretical perspectives to help both scholars and practitioners better understand the processes, affordances and constraints involved in spoken and signed language mediation.
- Maureen Ehrensberger-Dow, retired Professor of Translation Studies, ZHAW
“This work is a must-read for students and even scholars already familiar with the area. The wide coverage of such established domains as language and memory and burgeoning ones including emotion, metacognition, and technology provides insights for research and professional practices.”
- Chen-En Ho, Queen’s University Belfast, UK
“This handbook is an essential and comprehensive guide. It brilliantly bridges interpreting practices with cognitive science insights, casting an interdisciplinary light on the subject matter. A must-have for professionals and researchers alike.”
- Chao Han, Department of Chinese Studies, National University of Singapore
“This collection provides welcome clarifications about various aspects of interpreting and cognition, including topics that are not frequently covered in the literature… well worth reading and using for general guidance.”
