is a comprehensive and practical translation course. It focuses on improving translation quality and gives clear definitions of translation theories. Texts are taken from sources including journalism, technical texts and screenplays. Translation issues addressed include cultural differences, genre, and revision and editing. Adapted from the successful French-based (1992), the course has been piloted and refined at the Universities of St Andrews and Glasgow. A Tutor's Handbook offering invaluable guidance on using the course is available for free download at http://www.routledge.com/cw/thinkingtranslation/
