proofreader wanted

[Guest guest]

Hi All,

I have translated the medical classics text of Jin Gui Yao Lue (the

Synopsis of Golden Chamber) by ZHANG, Zhong-jing to Eng. and look

for proofreader here. It is the major of my graduate studies(master

degree,3 yr)in Chengdu U of TCM. It is a very important and

clinically practical text as it discusses the etiology, principle

treatment, and formulas of forty plus internal diseases. It is

praised by latter physicians as 'the book that saves lives' and 'the

ancestor of all formula books'.

 

If you

-enthuiastic about the classical text

-articulate in Eng lang (editing/writing experiencs a plus)

- have basic training in tcm theory

 

Please contact me and we can dsicuss the details. I locate in Hong

Kong and would like to work with you side by side so you will have

the immediate feedback. The manuscript has no major ambiguities but

needs eyes for grammatical errors. The content is very rich though.

If you cannot make it, we will work something out.

 

Compensation depends upon your training and experiences. Or, I will

share with you my clincial experiences with effective formulas or

whatever you want to learn (eg taichi, push hand) within my sources.

 

By the way, I am a 50s asian male who speaks good eng., L Ac & CM

practitioner in Hong Kong.

Thank you for your attention.

Good afternoon Sung, Yuk-Ming

 

I am interested in working with you to edit the text you are referring to. I

have done proof reading professionally for several newspapers, magazines and

books. The latest book I worked on was " Esoteric Acupuncture, Vol IV " by Dr.

Mikkio Sankey. I live in Los Angeles, CA and would be willing to work with you

via email/internet connection. If this is of interest to you please reply to

reenahm.

I want to thank you all who responded to my post. Due to Arduousness

ofthe content, I prefer someone who can physically come to Hong Kong

andwork alongside with me on fulltime basis. That probably takes

anywherefrom 2 wks to a month. Those who have future plan to study

in China or has strong movitation to succeed in clinical efficacy as

TCM practitoner please seriously consider this. Let me emphasize the

requirement again.

 

-native eng speaker with good eng skills

-background of the basis of tcm theory

-enthuisatic about study classic text of ZHANG, zhong-jing and

willing to commit

-able to travel to Hong Kong

(u don't need to know Chinese at all as i will interpret for u)

 

As this is a very academic matter and is a quite not ordinary

request, I also initiate a mentor-apprentice relationship. I am

willing to train serious apprentice. U may wonder what i have to

offer. I published 10+ articles in the top ranking jounrnals of tcm

in China(research), a trained teacher myself(teaching), good

clinical results in diabetics, ENT, lung system etc. I cannot spam

here but u feel free to ask me.

Dear Dr. Sung,

 

Proofreading is its own profession with its own tricks of the trade,

such as, for instance, reading backwards. However, it sounds to me

like what you are really looking is not a proofreader but an English

language editor? If you are looking for a proofreader, then that

person does not need to know any CM theory. They merely have to be

provided with a list of technical terms and their correct spelling.

Dear Mr Flaws,

 

Thanks so much for your kind attention and I cannot agree more with

your opinion.

 

Sincerely,

SUNG,Yuk-ming

Normally, you want to have more than one proofreader go through a

book. One of them should be familiar with Chinese medical theory, and

the other doesn't have to be a subject expert. I have worked as an

editor on and off for 40 years, and I can tell you that I frequently

find errors that would get past somebody not familiar with the subject

matter.
