Sinopsis

Translation Impact explores how the act of translation has shaped world history by facilitating knowledge transfer and influencing societies across cultures. Moving beyond the idea of translation as a simple linguistic process, it presents translation as a powerful agent of historical change. The book examines how the interpretation of translated texts has determined which ideas gained traction and how societies evolved, reframing our understanding of historical events. 

 
For example, the book highlights the translation of religious texts and its influence on religious thought, social norms, and political power structures. The book progresses through different sections, starting with religious texts, continuing with scientific and philosophical knowledge, and concluding with legal and political documents. 

 
One intriguing insight is how the translation of Greek and Roman texts into Arabic during the Middle Ages spurred scientific advancements and shaped intellectual discourse. By examining original manuscripts, correspondence, and comparative linguistic analysis, Translation Impact bridges history, linguistics, and cultural studies, offering a novel perspective on the forces that have shaped our globalized world.

Blame Changer by psychologist Carmel O'Brien, former head of Clinical Services at Victoria's Doncare, provides straight forward answers to common questions and aims to debunk pervasive myths around what Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull last year called "one of Australia's greatest shames" domestic violence. But Blame Changer is much more than the definitive rebuttal of some of society's most damaging, ill-informed and pervasive attitudes about domestic violence. It sounds a clarion call for a change in the way we talk - at the dinner table, on social media and in national conversation at the highest levels - about women and the violence they experience. What's more, it's also a practical guide that will help victims of abuse: Blame Changer also shows friends and family how to help a victim of abuse and challenges how the Family Court system responds to allegations of abuse. This is the definitive guide to domestic violence in Australia, by a woman who has worked with countless victims over many years.
