"Dr. Gross dispels some long-held myths regarding practitioner pain and offers the field of sign language interpreting practical advice on decreasing discomfort and increasing wellness. It is also an excellent reference for both novice and veteran interpreter practitioners."

Dr. T. Alan Hurwitz

President, Galludet University

Diane Gross captures the foundational principles developed in her workshops.

It is a significant resource for interpreters and interpreter training programs.

It is an excellent supplement to any one of Diane's workshops.

“It has been a pleasure to review this new, helpful, information-filled book, Sign Safely: Interpret Intelligently. Dr. Gross is an experienced practitioner and a foremost leader in the research necessary to guide professional interpreters and students of interpreting to more safely and intelligently sign and simultaneously provide quality service. It is my hope that interpreter education programs will incorporate the information into their curriculum and that practitioners will put the detailed information into practice as well. Signing safely and interpreting intelligently is a goal all of us will want to incorporate.”

"Dr. Diane Gross has done it again! She has surpassed the major impact she has been making through her workshops over the last decade. By writing Sign Safely, Interpret Intelligently each of us can now have this life-sustaining information at our fingertips. This text will undoubtedly help countless numbers of interpreters identify the resources needed to maintain full and productive careers and to create lifestyles which promote optimum health and well being. On behalf of our entire profession. Thank you, Diane."

"I read your book, and find it a practical and holistic approach to self-caree for a sign language interpreter. It encourages self-awareness. The result is a win-win-win situation for the interpreter, consumer, and stakeholders. As more Deaf people gain access to all aspects of society, demands on interpreters will grow, so it makes perfect sense to incorporate an understanding of bio-mechanics in interpreting work. This is a necessary part of any interpreter training program and ongoing professional maintenance. The easy to follow tips are an excellent guide for well-being and optimal interpreting performance."
