F.A. Davis Company Manuscript Editing Services
F.A. Davis Company has published nursing and allied health textbooks since 1879. Its books are used by students in clinical training. That audience sets the bar: the terminology has to be exact, and the explanation has to make sense to someone who has not yet worked a clinical shift.
Off the Grid Editing prepares manuscripts for F.A. Davis with attention to clinical accuracy and clear, teachable prose. We work in APA style for nursing and allied health manuscripts and apply the style your Davis editor specifies when you send the guidelines. In Davis manuscripts the balance we watch most closely is technical accuracy weighed against what a student reader can absorb on a first pass through the chapter.
Our Promise
We will ensure that the final draft you receive is completely ready to submit to F.A. Davis Company. We work with you until it is ready or refund your payment in full. That commitment has held since 2002.
Our editors do not have access to your manuscript until an order is placed. Your draft is secure until you decide to proceed.
Manuscript Editing Services for F.A. Davis Company
We offer three levels of manuscript editing depending on what your manuscript needs. Each is described below so you can choose the service that fits where your draft is right now.
Grammar and usage, awkward phrasing, repetition, and passive voice corrected, then clarity, concision, sentence structure, transitions, and tone, with your style manual applied throughout and a final proofread. For authors whose argument and structure are settled.
Clarity, emphasis, and paragraph structure: topic sentences, transitions, and sentences reordered within a paragraph, with every fact and claim kept as you wrote it. Includes copy editing and a final proofread.
Spelling, punctuation, typos, capitalization, grammar, and usage corrected with minimal wording changes, for manuscripts that have been edited and need a last check before submission to F.A. Davis Company.
F.A. Davis manuscripts are read by students in clinical training. We check clinical terminology and drug and dosage references for consistency across chapters, and we edit procedural descriptions for clarity. Passages where the language may need clinical verification come back to you as queries. More about the press and its list is on the F.A. Davis website.
