Criminal Law textbook: Copy Editing - Like a Boss

by AuthorJustin Waddell

This little gem was found by one of our very own Georgetown students. (thanks for bringing it to my attention). The textbook is in draft stage, so let’s not be too hard on the writer or publisher.

Warning: Course language ahead.

This is how you copy edit.
