Excellent news after my flaming bish over the proofs, failing to put in file in my hand luggage for correction during long spaces of travelling time. Email today from the volume editors saying that they have kicked up major stink with the publishers about how intrusive and incompetent the editing has been. As a result, the publishers are going to redo the whole thing, and we will be getting a fresh untampered with version in due course.
Relief.
Upside: no correcting of proofs edited by someone with an axe. Downside: this volume has already taken far too long to get even to this stage.
academic,
proofs,
