Frank Gerace made an excellent editing of my rather complex book entitled âResonance. My Journey Beyond Ultrasound. It is over five hundred pages and a story of a holocaust survivor, an immigrant and a scientist of ultrasonics. Frank handled the copy editing with ease both the historical and the scientific aspects of this writing. He sometimes changed a phrase or two; in these cases he used the MSWord comment facility to alert me to any edits of grammar or style and in any uncertain situation, he always consulted with me leaving the decision to me, the writer. He double checked place names on Google and even corrected my French and Spanish spelling. His efforts turned my work into a much more readable form. His editing exceeds all my expectation. If there is an award for editing I definitely would nominate Frank for the GRAND PRIX.

Professor Gerace is knowledgeable and understanding. He helped me find my weak points and we are currently working on making improvments. He breaks down concepts so that they are easy to understand and makes certain that you understand before moving on.

Frank did a fantastic job, He integrity was outstanding. He was very friendly and quite helpful in his suggestions to my book. He was very prompt in completing his editing and did all he agreed to do and more. My experience working with frank is such that I will seek him out to do more work for me in the future. I recommend frank to anyone who wants the best to take care of their editing needs.

A skilled writer, he responded quickly and provided service on the same day. Prof. Gerace helped me make my writing tighter and more succinct, and to clarify jargon that might not be obvious to my intended audience. It is not always easy to take criticism (aka constructive feedback), but he was objective and very kind in his comments. I'm thrilled with the way this project turned out, and I would work with him again in a heartbeat.

Dr. Frank Gerace conducted a sound editing job of my Dissertation Proposal. His feedback gave me fresh ideas in which to communicate. This is important in modern times where electronic proof reading systems may not provide the human perspective needed to effectively communicate. However, using both techniques will enhance author communications skills and written products. Therefore, I suppose several minds working as a cohesive-team is better than anyone attempting to act alone.
