  • Book Description

    When healthcare providers and patients do not speak the same language, medical interpreters are called in to help. In this book, Claudia Angelelli explores the role of medical interpreters, drawing on data from over 300 medical encounters and interviewing the interpreters themselves about the people for whom they interpret, their challenges, and how they characterize their role. Bringing together literature from social theory, social psychology, and linguistic anthropology, this book will appeal to anyone wanting to discover the intricacies of medical interpreting; particularly researchers, communication specialists, policy makers, and practitioners.
