This book assembles fifteen original, interdisciplinary research chapters that explore methodological and conceptual considerations as well as user and usage studies to elucidate the relation between the translation product and translation/post-editing processes. It introduces numerous innovative empirical/data-driven measures as well as novel classification schemes and taxonomies to investigate and quantify the relation between translation quality and translation effort in from-scratch translation, machine translation post-editing and computer-assisted audiovisual translation. The volume addresses questions in the translation of cognates, neologisms, metaphors, and idioms, as well as figurative and cultural specific expressions. It re-assesses the notion of translation universals and translation literality, elaborates on the definition of translation units and syntactic equivalence, and investigates the impact of translation ambiguity and translation entropy. The results and findings are interpreted in the context of psycho-linguistic models of bilingualism and re-frame empirical translation process research within the context of modern dynamic cognitive theories of the mind. The volume bridges the gap between translation process research and machine translation research. It appeals to students and researchers in the fields.

"In the midst of a major Washington, D.C. snowstorm, Dr. Dell Forsythe is blind-sided. Neither he nor anyone he knows has ever witnessed anything like it. Just before Christmas, a terminally ill cancer patient under his care has a miraculous recovery. Without any medical explanation, relatives and staff are convinced that a heaven-sent angel is responsible.It's not that Forsythe doesn't want to believe in miracles, it's just that after years of professional disappointments and personal regrets, he's well past skeptical. That is, until he meets the angel."

This volume provides a comprehensive introduction to the Translation Process Research Database (TPR-DB), which was compiled by the Centre for Research and Innovation in Translation and Technologies (CRITT). The TPR-DB is a unique resource featuring more than 500 hours of recorded translation process data, augmented with over 200 different rich annotations. Twelve chapters describe the diverse research directions this data can support, including the computational, statistical and psycholinguistic modeling of human translation processes.In the first chapters of this book, the reader is introduced to the CRITT TPR-DB. This is followed by two main parts, the first of which focuses on usability issues and details of implementing interactive machine translation. It also discusses the use of external resources and translator-information interaction. The second part addresses the cognitive and statistical modeling of human translation processes, including co-activation at the lexical, syntactic and discourse levels, translation literality, and various annotation schemata for the data.

The story is a memoir-a history of the dawning and emergence of open heart surgery in the world as told through the experience of one family in the Upper Midwest in the mid-1950's.

The descendants of Hitler's 1939 Lebensborn program have returned to revive the Third Reich to its past glory. Like a silent hibernating bear, the bloodlines of Himmler, Goebbels and Hess have remained intact and the goal of world domination thrives. Under the cloak of democracy, they have chosen to establish themselves in the United States. In its wake, voiceless and stealth, a new Final Solution emerges. A wrench has been thrown into the well-oiled Nazi machine. One man can expose the evil plot of death and supremacy before worldwide mayhem unfolds.

"The Road to Auschwitz" is the autobiography of Hedi Fried, a fifteen-year-old living in Sighet, Romania, when war breaks out in 1939. In March 1944, Hedi's family, along with three thousand other Jews from her village, are confined to a ghetto, awaiting shipment to Auschwitz. In Auschwitz, amidst the horror, Hedi turns twenty, her sister, Livi, fifteen. As Hedi and Livi will later learn, their parents do not survive.

In April 1945, the sisters are transported to Bergen-Belsen, two months before liberation. Upon liberation, Hedi renews her acquaintance with Michael, another survivor from Sighet. They move to Sweden, marry, and eventually have three sons. It is the loss of Michael, when Hedi is only forty, that prompts this memoir. "It took me forty years to realize that I am a witness and that it is my task to tell what I experienced."
