As a meaningful manifestation of how institutionalized the discipline has become, the new <i>Handbook of Translation Studies</i> is most welcome.<br /><br />The <i>HTS</i> aims at disseminating knowledge about translation and interpreting to a relatively broad audience: not only students who often adamantly prefer user-friendliness, researchers and lecturers in Translation Studies, Translation & Interpreting professionals; but also scholars, experts and professionals from other disciplines (among which linguistics, sociology, history, psychology).<br />Moreover, the <i>HTS</i> is the first handbook with this scope in Translation Studies that has <i>both a print edition and an online version</i>. The <i>HTS</i> is variously searchable: by article, by author, by subject. Another benefit is the interconnection with the selection and organization principles of the online<i> Translation Studies Bibliography</i> (<i>TSB</i>). Many items in the reference lists are hyperlinked to the <i>TSB</i>, where the user can find an abstract of a publication.<br />All articles are written by specialists in the different subfields and are peer-reviewed
