"This is an important book! By means of its interdisciplinary approach, and at the intersection of translation and writing, it explores what it entails to be truly patient-centered. Scholars as well as practitioners within translation and health communication will benefit from topical insights on significant issues such as how to ensure comprehensibility, accommodate the target group, and support patients at an emotional level." - Karen Korning Zethsen, Professor of Translation Studies at Aarhus University, Denmark
"A welcome work that explores the various dimensions of patient-centered communication and translation, increasingly at the heart of medical and paramedical practices. Comprehensive, well-documented and well structured, this must-have book for anyone designing or translating patient-facing documents will be useful to students and experienced professionals alike, as well as to teachers and researchers." - Sylvie Vandaele, Full Professor, Université de Montréal, Canada
"I applaud the authors for their work on this long-awaited volume which explores different aspects of patient-centered translation, which should be essential reading for any student, educator or practitioner involved in this important field of community translation. Patients are the all-important end-users of health translation, and involving end-user perspectives in the final health translation product is crucial." - Ineke Crezee, ONZM, Professor of Translation and Interpreting, Auckland University of Technology, Auckland, New Zealand
