The fourth edition of A Practical Guide for Translators, which is now available, sees thetraining and work situation of translators much changed from when the book first appeared on the market.
In 1993, when the first edition was published, educational institutions in the UK had only started to acknowledge that in order for linguists to turn into translators training was needed at the academic level. Courses were gradually becoming available in order to prepare the student translator for the professional demands to be met by the functioning practitioner. Although the Institute of Linguists and its Postgraduate Diploma in Translation had already pointed to the requirements inherent in the profession, with the setting up of the Institute of Translation and Interpreting in 1986, the need for the special linguistic skills of the translator was further highlighted.
