1.0 out of 5 stars too many typos and incorrect usage errors, March 28, 2006
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: A Technical Guide For Performing and Writing Phase I Environmental Site Assessments (Paperback)
I found 10 typos & usage problems in the first 4 pages. This book couldn't have been edited by a professional. This is the worst example of shoddy editing and proofreading I have ever seen. Here are just two examples from page 15:

"Checklists on what information should be gathered and can be located in Appendix B."

The next sentence reads as follows: "Remember, the custodian is limited by time to complete the report it is usually 20 days from the site-visit to the submission of the report."

It appears that it was written and edited by a non-English speaking person.
