这套“国外翻译研究丛书”的出版首先可以解决国内翻译教学原版参考书多年匮乏的困难，真可以说是我国翻译教学与理论研究的及时雨。 这套丛书的价值还在于能大大促进我国翻译学科建设的发展。 舍夫纳等编写的这本《翻译能力培养》是该系列中的一册，适合从事相关研究工作的人员参考阅读。

舍夫纳等编写的《翻译能力培养》分为定义翻译能力、培养翻译能力和评估翻译能力三个部分。第一部分介绍了翻译能力的构成要素，包括语言、文化、文本、学科、研究和转换能力等；第二部分探讨了课程设计、方法论以及教学实践等；第三部分论述了翻译能力的评估标准。

《翻译能力培养》对我国高校英语专业翻译能力的培养、界定和评估具有重要的指导意义。
