The need for translation from English into Arabic and vice versa has grown substantially
since 9/11 and the war on Iraq in 2003. Such a need has increased demands for
translation services from and into these two languages. Unfortunately, the educational
market has suffered from a lack of textbooks that address translation from a practical
point of view, taking into consideration the changing nature of the translation market
on social, economic and political levels. Translation is a highly demanding process
that involves much more than utilising and converting words and phrases from one
language into another, and translators and learners need a practical book that addresses
the skills and sub-skills of translation: this book is designed to address some of these needs.
