Reviews
'... an extremely useful overview, and a convincing practical exemplification, of the conceptual and methodological tools that can be brought to bear in the study of such an elusive object as translation in the news media.' Giuseppe Palumbo, Contrastive Pragmatics
'... Zanettin's introduction to news media translation offers an in-depth historical account and an analytical method most likely to reveal the 'reality' behind reported events, as far as it can be.' Donald R. Riccomini, Society for Technical Communication
