Acknowledgments
We owe a huge ‘thank you’ to all the contributors to this volume for embarking
on this project with us and putting up with our pressing requests and friendly
reminders. We are also indebted to the two anonymous reviewers who have pro-
vided insightful comments on the first draft of the manuscript, as well as to the
Translation Library’s editors and all the staff at John Benjamins for their accurate
and patient coordinating work. Our heartfelt thanks go to Laurie Anderson and
Guy Aston for providing crucial assistance in the revision work and to Laura Gavioli
for honouring us with her foreword. Our final thanks go to the many students,
users, and practitioners we have had the pleasure to work with, who, by discussing
and facing with us the dilemmas dialogue interpreters are confronted with, have
inspired this collection.
