520    International Sign (IS) is widely used among deaf people 
       and interpreters at international events, but what exactly
       is it, what are its linguistic features, where does its 
       lexicon come from, and how is it used at interpreted 
       events? This groundbreaking collection is the first volume
       to provide answers to these questions. Editors Rachel 
       Rosenstock and Jemina Napier have assembled an 
       international group of renowned linguists and interpreters
       to examine various aspects of International Sign. Their 
       contributions are divided into three parts: International 
       Sign as a Linguistic System; International Sign in Action-
       -Interpreting, Translation, and Teaching; and 
       International Sign Policy and Language Planning. The 
       chapters cover a range of topics, including the 
       morphosyntactic and discursive structures of interpreted 
       IS, the interplay between conventional linguistic elements
       and nonconventional gestural elements in IS discourse, how
       deaf signers who use different signed languages establish 
       communication, Deaf/hearing IS interpreting teams and how 
       they sign depicting verbs, how best to teach foundation-
       level IS skills, strategies used by IS interpreters when 
       interpreting from IS into English, and explorations of the
       best ways to prepare interpreters for international 
       events. The work of the editors and contributors in this 
       volume makes International Sign the most comprehensive, 
       research-based analysis of a young but growing field in 
       linguistics and interpretation.
