This review is based on the book Mediating Emergencies and Conflicts: Frontline Translating and Interpreting, organized by Federico M. Federici (University College London), United Kingdom. Several countries in different parts of the globe face emergencies, catastrophes, natural or man-made disasters. These phenomena cause a number of demands, among them, translators, interpreters and linguistic mediators of various languages. This book explores the role of these professionals based on professional experiences and also research results, putting into evidence countries such as Turkey, Egypt, Afghanistan, Ireland, Spain, Belgium, among others.
