If you are confused about the Council of Europe, the European Commission, the Council of Ministers and the European Parliament, you will find the answers to your questions in this book." "Postal and Internet website addresses accompany all information. Professional interpreter Associations are listed which, via the internet, can be useful sources of new ideas for interpreters working thousands of miles away."--BOOK JACKET.
