Abstract:

Chiew Kin Quah draws on years of academic and professional experience to 
provide an account of translation technology, its applications and 
capabilities. Major developments from North America, Europe and Asia are 
described, including developments in uses and users of the technology. The 
book is essential for students on translating courses and professional 
translators wishing to be brought up-to-date or to prepare for a new 
aspect of their work. With its emphasis on the role of the translator both 
as user of and developer of these new tools, needing to understand both 
the process of design and the human aspects of translating, it is 
complementary to other books which concentrate on the computational and 
technical processing aspects of the systems.


'A clear and comprehensive introduction to a complex and fast-moving field 
which is central to the activity of translation in the 21st century. This 
up-to-date account is required reading for trainees, practitioners and 
theorists.' - Professor Jenny Williams, Head of the School of Applied 
Language and Intercultural Studies, Dublin City University, Republic of 
Ireland
