Description

The first work ever to detail ethics for sign language interpreters in the Middle East. Taken from my work in the Gulf as a mentor and teacher to budding interpreters in the region, I combine, modify, and expand on the broadly accepted principles stress-tested in the West and supervised by RID to fit with Islam and Gulf culture.


Whether you are a student dreaming of being an interpreter in the Gulf, the Levant, or North Africa, or a talented interpreter yourself, this is an essential component to the education of any sign language interpreter in a Muslim country, and, for Westerners, an excellent examination of a culture both multifaceted and unique.


14,000 words, first edition (May 2024), in both English and Arabic in Paperback. Has exercises to help students understand the principles, sub-principles, and described techniques. Presumes knowledge of sign language, ideally Arabic Sign Language or a related dialect.
