Greetings to all. I have been requested to post this to EMC-PSTC.
A major publisher of technical and engineering books (one of the big 4 publishers) has commissioned a handbook targeted toward electrical design and packaging engineers. The editor is a university professor at a well-known university. This is multi-chapter book, with each chapter written by a different person, and is projected to be 1000 pages in length. This is a solicitation to find a safety engineer with "excellent" technical writing skills to produce a chapter on product safety. This chapter should be approximately 30-100 pages. Contents are to include Safety and Third-Party Certification (Title of Chapter - can be changed) Explanation of the essential requirements for safety Regulatory concerns world wide (North America, Europe CE, Asia, etc.) Overview on how standards are structured and written Essential requirements for electrical safety Essential requirements for mechanical safety Essential requirements for fire hazard Test and certification process - how to proceed, documentation required, etc. Use of third-party certification services (NRTL, Competent Bodies, etc.) Deadline is late December, "this year!" Royalty is a free copy of the book, projected to sell for >$100. They cannot pay authors of multi-chapter books (I know this is a bummer; the publishers policy). Advantage of participation - International recognition as an author, helping out many worldwide. Get your name in print! In interested, please send contact information along with "brief" supporting documentation of past technical articles, books, written, qualifications etc. Only serious authors need apply. I will forward your contact information to the editor who will discuss all details with you directly. I am "not" the editor of this project, only a participant and messenger. --Mark Montrose-- mmont...@ix.netcom.com --------- This message is coming from the emc-pstc discussion list.
