520    The last forty years have seen a dramatic change in the 
       nature of work, with deaf people increasingly moving into 
       white collar or office-based professions. The rise of deaf
       professionals has led to employment opportunities for 
       signed language interpreters across a variety of workplace
       settings, creating a unique set of challenges that require
       specialized strategies. Aspects such as social interaction
       between employees, the unwritten patterns and rules of 
       workplace behavior, hierarchical structures, and the 
       changing dynamics of deaf employee/interpreter 
       relationships place constraints upon the interpreter's 
       role and interpreting performance. Jules Dickinson's 
       examination of interpreted workplace interactions is based
       on the only detailed, empirical study of this setting to 
       date. Using practitioner responses and transcripts of real
       -life interpreted workplace interactions, Dickinson's 
       findings demonstrate the complexity of the interpreter's 
       role and responsibilities. The book concentrates on the 
       ways in which signed language interpreters affect the 
       interaction between deaf and hearing employees in team 
       meetings by focusing on humor, small talk, and the 
       collaborative floor. Signed Language Interpreting in the 
       Workplace demonstrates that deaf employees require highly 
       skilled professionals to enable them to integrate into the
       workplace on a level equal with their hearing peers. It 
       also provides actionable insights for interpreters in 
       workplace settings that will be a valuable resource for 
       interpreting students, practitioners, interpreter trainers,
       and researchers.
