This book provides an overview of the sign language interpreting profession in Australia and New Zealand, detailing theoretical and applied aspects of the field. It includes discussion of the interpreting process, the role of the interpreter, professionalism and ethics, as well as the challenges and strategies for working in a variety of different settings, with consideration given to some specialist interpreting skills. Each chapter guides readers through some of the key issues in the profession, and provides thought questions as a reflective tool.This text will be a valuable resource for sign language and interpreting students, interpreters entering the profession, and a reference book for sign language interpreter practitioners, trainers and researchers.
