Abstract
This volume is the record of a symposium Language Interpretation and Communication which was part of the NATO Human Factors Conference and Symposium Program for 1977. Ninety-six participants from 16 countries and 6 international organizations met at the Giorgio Cini Foundation on the Isle of San Giorgio in Venice during the last week of September, 1977 to take part in the first interdisciplinary forum on practical and theoretical aspects of conference interpretation. Those present included conference interpreters, sign language interpreters, and teachers of these skills, as well as representatives from the fields of psychology, linguistics, translation, anthropology, sociology, and psychiatry.
