Twenty five years experience indexing scholarly texts including embedded and traditional back of the book indexes: philosophy, religious studies, literary criticism and anthropology are areas of deep interest and experience, as well as a wide variety of humanities and social science texts. My experience and knowledge base permits me to index accurately, efficiently and with insight on a wide variety of topics to build comprehensive, accurate, and user-friendly indexes for university and academic presses. Embedded indexing including MS Word, XML, CUP (Cambridge University Press) and other unique or proprietary systems like Oxford University Press and Palgrave MacMillan.
