This book should be on the reference shelf—and in the bookbag—of everyone interested in editing, from the most case-hardened to the greenest neophyte; above all, it should be in the hands of teachers and students.

Editing Documents and Texts is a marvelous work—a key for students and practitioners of editing to the accumulated wisdom of our noble profession. It will be one of our basic texts.
