隨著**化進程日益顯著，且愈來愈**經濟領域，口譯在此過程中所起的作用與擔當的角色亦日趨重要。口譯在**化的過程中成為不可或缺的橋梁或中介。愛爾蘭都柏林城市大學應用語言與跨文化研究學院教師瑪麗·費倫(Mary Phelan)的這本《口譯員的資源》，無疑是幫助譯員走向成功的利器之一。
本書在縱的方面，讓讀者對口譯有一個歷史的了解；在橫的方面，使讀者對國外口譯有一個總體的印像。而其*大的指導意義，在筆者看來，乃是在於其為讀者——譯員或未來的譯員——提供了一張相當詳細的“地圖”，讀者不但對此地圖會有一個整體的了解，而且可以“按圖索驥”，與網絡相結合，查找*詳細、*新、因而*準確的信息。

《口譯員的資源》全面概述了口譯的情況，為譯員或未來的譯員提供 了寶貴的指導。作為一本實用指南，本書首先簡要介紹口譯的歷史，闡述 了口譯的主要術語及其使用背景。社區口譯章節詳細論述了世界各地社區 口譯、法庭口譯和醫療口譯的有關情況。與其他行業一樣，職業道德對口 譯而言也非常重要，本書收錄了五種不同職業譯員機構的職業道德準則。 很多譯員以自由譯員或職業會議譯員的身份工作，本書提供了大量雇 用譯員的國際組織的背景信息。例如，在淪及歐盟和聯合囤時，本書詳細 介紹了其語言政策、譯員招募程序、譯員雇用人數及其下屬的各實體機構 。如果你對歐洲理事會、歐盟委員會、歐共體部長級會議或歐洲議會不甚 了解，你將在本書中找到答案。 所有信息部附有郵寄地址或網址。本書還列舉了各職業譯員協會，通 過互聯網，千裡之外的譯員也能夠從中查找到有用的新信息。
