HAPPY New Year! As of today, I have posted about 28 completed write-ups and updates for ASME to initiate the process of preparing first proofs.Of these 28 chapters, ASME has already started work on 19 chapters. I am looking at 5 submissions that I intend to post for ASME to pick-up within the next few days, so that we will have 6 more chapters to wrestle with! Thus, out of 38 chapters in these volumes 1 and 2 of the 4th Edition of Companion Guide we will have about 85% of the chapters on the hands of ASME staff to proceed with the preparation of 1st Proofs. I will be taking up the ‘front matter’ of the book that comprise of “Table of Contents”, “Book Introduction”, “Contributor Bios and Pictures”, for which I will be reaching each of you within the next few days. We are still counting on March 2012 publication date.I count on your cooperation to achieve this target. K. R. Rao (Editor: Jan, 1, 2012; visitor Count to this web site: 30616)
