Math, math, and more math is what I edit. Elementary, high school, and college mathematics textbooks: I edit them all, at all stages of the process. Vast experience editing all levels of el-hi mathematics texts; extensive experience copy-editing college-level statistics, business, and calculus for the life sciences texts. In the past year or so, I've become a bit of an expert at Canadianizing U.S. college accounting and statistics textbooks. For 11 years, I copy-edited a physics journal (until it was bought out by an American firm). I also copy-edit papers for a fascinating journal on gambling issues. I work in Microsoft Word, Adobe Acrobat (with my stylus), and LaTeX, and am proficient in Microsoft Excel. I have been a freelance editor for 16 years, and wouldn't have it any other way. I have a degree in Applied Mathematics from the University of Waterloo, as well as a Book and Magazine Publishing Diploma from Centennial College. In my spare time I love to knit, read, run, cycle, swim, walk, and play with my kitties. keywords: math, maths, mathematics, physics, biology, statistics, business, text, textbook, textbooks, Canadianization, Canadianize, Canadianizing, Canadian |
