Book editing and finishing work

---

I’m seeking experienced professionals to help prepare a completed nonfiction manuscript (approx. 37,000 words) for publication in the fields of political science, social theory, and political philosophy. The project examines alternative frameworks for governance rooted in compassion, civic participation, and historical traditions beyond Western adversarial models—aimed at both academic and engaged general audiences. I am looking for: Academic Editor – preferably with expertise in political theory, social science, or philosophy, to provide structural and stylistic editing that sharpens arguments and enhances clarity without diluting complexity. Proofreader – to ensure precision in grammar, punctuation, formatting consistency, and academic tone. Cover Designer – to design a compelling, professional book cover for both print and digital formats that reflects the depth and elegance of the manuscript’s themes. Ideal collaborators will have experience with: Academic nonfiction or scholarly trade books Editing theoretical, historical, or conceptual material Working with independent authors or university presses
