Translation is everywhere and matters to everybody. Translation doesn't only give us foreign news, dubbed films and instructions for using the microwave: without it, there would be no world religions, and our literatures, our cultures, and our languages would be unrecognizable. In this Very Short Introduction, Matthew Reynolds gives an authoritative and thought-provoking account of the field, from ancient Akkadian to World English, from St Jerome to Google Translate. He shows how translation determines meaning, how it matters in commerce, empire, conflict and resistance, and why it is fundamental to literature and the arts.

Nice shirt but size up one to two sizes.
Size: Large, Color: Clay
I love this shirt. it is good quality. I got the clay colored one. I really like it. They do run small. I normally wear a medium. So I got a large. It fits pretty well. It is a tad bit tight, but I am losing weight(145LBS) So far. So it should fit fine in a few weeks. I am 5,2 135Lbs. I probably should have gotten the XL.

Slim fit for the winner
Size: Medium, Color: Clay Floral Print
Beautiful orange shirt and I love the metal buttons. Very comfortable and I like the slim fit. It appears more tailored. I'm a tall guy at 6'4" and the length for a medium was perfect.
