This new edition includes:* new material in almost all chapters* a new chapter on parallelism* two new chapters on technical translation: botanical and Islamic finance texts* new and up-to-date examples from all types of translation, covering broad issues that have emerged in the Arab world in recent years* texts drawn from a wide variety of writing types, including newspapers, prose fiction, poetry, tourist material, scientific texts, financial texts, recipes, academic writing, constitutions and political speeches* at least three full-length practical translation exercises in each chapter to complement the discussions and consolidate learning. In addition to the updated Tutor's Handbook, a Supplement, containing textual material and practical exercises aimed at further developing the translation issues discussed in the main text, and a Tutor's Handbook to the Supplement, are available at www.routledgetextbooks.com/textbooks/_author/thinkingtranslation/.
