Books I've Edited

Below is a sample of some of the books I edited for the University of Chicago Press. For some of the books I only edited new material, such as a new foreword or introduction. As a manuscript editor my job is to copyedit the entire manuscript and see it through its various phases before it is delivered as a book. Manuscript editing is a critical component of the publication process, as manuscript editors are the only ones who edit and check the entire manuscript.
