Synopsis

Rosenhouse, Gitay and Porush of ITT/Technion have collaborated in creating a collection of essays based on the First International Conference on Future and Communication and the role of scientific and technical communication and translation in technology development and transfer. The primary aim of this major international conference was to explore how scientific and industrial matters could be run more efficiently throughout the world by utilizing modern communication methods and systems. Particular emphasis was placed on enhancing the interaction between the industry and the universities using various areas of written communication and translation studies.
Within this important work are summaries from the presentations made at the conference. Among the critical matters discussed were aspects of technical as well as scientific translation in the 21st century, the communications challenges of the future, and their likely outcomes, matching language curriculum to emerging high technology needs and paradigms and finally, an intriguing section on the state of technical writing in Israel and the Middle East.
