“Harry David is a super indexer—comprehensive, accurate, fast!”
Deirdre N. McCloskey, Distinguished Professor of Economics, History, English, and Communication University of Illinois at Chicago
“Our first experience with Harry David was on a chapter for an edited volume. When I read the comments—not just the technical comments, but the substantive comments—I thought it would be challenging to write anything without using his editing and indexing services. We’ve now worked with Harry on several books and articles and I recommend him most highly to anyone looking to improve the quality of their writing. Harry’s extensive editing services are especially useful, and his substantive knowledge of the areas where we do most of our work – economics, political economy, and politics – is always appreciated. Harry is also an expert at creating indexes, with a great eye for seeing connections in concepts that we would not have seen. All I can say is once you see his editing work, you will be hooked. I wish I had connected with Harry much earlier in my career!”
Ilia Murtazashvili, Associate Professor at the Graduate School of Public and International Affairs & Center for Governance and Markets, University of Pittsburgh
“Harry David did a fantastic job on the index for my book, Lottocracy: Democracy Without Elections (Oxford University Press, 2024). His work was careful and thoughtful, he was excellent and consistent in his communication, and he was able to do the work very efficiently, meeting every deadline on a tight schedule. I would recommend him very highly to anyone.”
Alexander A. Guerrero, Professor of Philosophy, Rutgers University
“Harry has reviewed several articles for me. He did great edits, which not only helped writing it in better English, but also made the argument much clearer, more crisp and to the point. I recommend him most enthusiastically.”
Gauti B. Eggertsson, Professor of Economics, Brown University
“I asked Harry to help me do some light copy editing of a book manuscript and to compile the index. He did an excellent job. The index is more detailed and organized than anything I could have come up with myself. He's also very professional and easy to work with. I'll be recommending his services to my friends.”
Cara Nine, Chair of Philosophy and Associate Professor, University of Nevada, Reno
“Starting in 2017 we at the American Institute for Economic Research have been using Harry to edit all of our material and he is great. He has a good knowledge of the English language and, of course, economics too. He is courteous, timely and very helpful.”
Edward Peter Stringham, Professor of Economic Organizations and Innovation at Trinity College; President at American Institute for Economic Research
“The task was daunting: condensing an economics-style paper of over 10,000 words into a concise 3,500-word article suitable for a multidisciplinary scientific journal (Science). With minimal guidance from me, he skillfully rewrote the paper, maintaining its core arguments while significantly reducing its length. What impressed me most was Harry's ability to distill complex economic concepts into clear, accessible prose without losing the nuance of the original work. Harry's responsiveness and promptness were exceptional. He demonstrated a keen understanding of both the subject matter and the stringent requirements of top-tier scientific publications. I wholeheartedly recommend Harry to anyone facing similar challenges in academic writing or editing. His ability to transform dense, discipline-specific text into compelling, widely accessible content is truly invaluable.”
Nishith Prakash, Professor of Public Policy and Economics at Northeastern University
“Harry has edited three co-authored pieces by me. In each, he caught many grammatical and other technical errors. He also offered numerous substantive suggestions where the analysis was missing a step or the argument unclear. I stumbled on Harry's handiwork after he edited a co-author's draft. I was much impressed and asked him to work on yet another paper. Harry met the deadlines easily, stayed within the bounds of his authority, and was easy to work with. I highly recommend Harry.”
Thomas Stratmann, University Professor of Economics and Law at George Mason University
“Harry did an excellent job on short notice. He came highly recommended and did not disappoint. Indexes for academic books can be tricky, and it is essential to have someone with an academic background to create a good index.”
John Thrasher, Associate Professor of Philosophy at Chapman University
“I've asked Harry to copyedit several of my articles, and he has done an excellent job: the comments and suggestions have been good, and the turnaround time has been very rapid. I plan to use his services regularly.”
Art Carden, Associate Professor of Economics at Samford University
“Over the past two years, Harry has provided indexing services on three edited books that I’ve helped to coordinate for publication with academic presses. Harry’s work on all of these projects has been characterized by uniformly high quality and attention to detail. Furthermore, he is friendly, professional, flexible, timely and eminently dependable in navigating the particular circumstances and needs of each project. His efforts have not only ensured that each of these volumes has a comprehensive and useful index, but that each volume stays on its respective production schedule, and that contributors and editors are relieved of a significant amount of the time pressure that goes along with preparing book-length manuscripts for publication. Adding to that the specialized knowledge of political economy that Harry brings to his work, along with the number of instances where he has caught overlooked copy-editing issues beyond the scope of work, not to mention the competitive pricing of his services, Harry has become my go-to resource for my continuing editorial needs.”
Peter Lipsey, Program Manager for Academic and Student Programs at Mercatus Center at George Mason University
“Harry did an excellent job with the index for my book, including superb proofreading that caught a huge error I had missed. I recommend him strongly.”
Steve Horwitz, Schnatter Distinguished Professor of Free Enterprise at Ball State University
“Harry is a great editor. He has improved some articles and papers for Market Trends UFM, adjusting the structure and expressions of these works. He delivers the work fast and makes sure the main idea of the texts are not lost. I highly recommend him.”
Deryn Orbaugh, Coordinator of Mont Pelerin Society at University of Francisco Marroquín
“Harry was instrumental in helping launch a new academic journal entitled Political Economy in the Carolinas. He provided invaluable service as copy-editor for all articles, notes, and book reviews. He also suggested citation format that proved helpful for authors. I strongly recommend him and will be using his services again.”
Adam C. Smith, Associate Professor at Johnson & Wales University
“Harry's work for our journal has been exceptional. He's repeatedly shown an aptitude for working with difficult manuscripts, including articles from non-native English speakers. What's more, his editing talents are not limited to streamlining writers' prose: he also asks thoughtful questions about content that frequently improve the quality of the final publication. In addition, he's been willing to accommodate the challenging time constraints of journal publishing.”
Matthew McCaffrey, Editor of Libertarian Papers and Assistant Professor of Economics at University of Manchester
“Harry edited a new 450+ page book for me (“The Economics of American Art: Artists, Issues and Market Institutions” with John Jackson and the late Bob Tollison) to appear with Oxford University Press. I was pleased beyond measure at the competence and professionalism with which it was done. I recommend him without reservation! I plan to use him for all future work, long and short.”
Robert E. Ekelund Jr., Professor Emeritus at Auburn University
“Harry David is a life-saver for me. Whenever I need any copy-editing, indexing, other work done, I can count on him to do it perfectly and quickly, with a more than reasonable turn-around time. He always goes above and beyond the call of duty, too, for instance, by noticing and correcting typos even when I’ve just asked him to compile an index. I consider Harry my secret weapon in enhancing my own scholarly productivity. He’s cheerful, professional, easy to work with, and by a rather large margin the best person I’ve worked with.”
Jason Brennan, Distinguished Associate Professor of Strategy, Economics, Ethics, and Public Policy at Georgetown University
“I employed Harry David to proofread and create the index for my book, Common Law Liberalism. He did both in a timely and accurate fashion, turning an arduous task into a pleasure. I look forward to working with him again and highly recommend him to others.”
John Hasnas, Professor of Law at Georgetown University Law Center
“Harry is a very meticulous reader with a remarkable eye for details. He works very quickly but attentively, both as a proofreader and as a copy-editor. His suggestions for improving style and expression have always been very perceptive and helpful. I strongly recommend his work for academic papers in political philosophy.”
Emanuela Ceva, Associate Professor of Political Philosophy at University of Pavia
“Harry does an extraordinary editing job! It is a joy to work with him. He thoroughly corrects all the grammatic and stylistic errors, does not miss any error in formating and gives the text the necessary flow. Harry cares about the work done and he is always helpful.”
Jan Bittner, Professor at Prague University of Economics and Business
“I am very satisfied with Harry's editing. He not only provides the correct way grammatically, but also helps me to find the precise wording to convey my logic. The discussant of my paper said, "It is well structured and well written" after his editing.”
Jang Yi, Professor of Economics at Xiamen University
”Harry is remarkable and indispensable as a copy editor and proofer. In addition, he is the best indexer with whom I've ever work, hands down. He is precise, thorough, intelligent, creative, on time and affordable—and enormously easy to work with. This skill is actually more rare than people think but Harry has all the stuff to make the magic happen. When he is finished with a manuscript, or a book of any length, I have complete confidence that it is right from top to bottom.”
Jeffrey Tucker, Editorial Director at American Institute for Economic Research
“I have been publishing academic articles in peer-reviewed journal for more than 15 years. The quality and clarity in writing is crucial, in addition to the sound theoretical framework and the empirical analyses. Harry has helped me so much in copy editing my most recent manuscripts. The quality of his reviews is outstanding. He is extremely detailed with each word and the general composition of the text. He helps me a lot in articulating the ideas and in making the reading of the manuscript much more fluent and professional. Since working with him, I have observed that the quality of my research is superior.”
Paolo Saona, Professor of Finance at Saint Louis University at Madrid
“Harry has recently stylistically edited my book on themes related to macroeconomics. I am very much impressed by his edits and knowledgeable feedback. I have learned a lot from his review of my work. I am going to entrust him with my other book (in progress) for his edits. I highly recommend his services for researchers and writers in economics.”
R. N. Bhardwaj, Professor of Economics at George Brown College
“My coauthors and I wanted a professional editor before submitting an article to an academic finance journal. We also needed some advice on whether the terminology we used was appropriate, comprehensible, and consistent. Harry gave us a thorough account of his view. We were very happy with Harry's work. He found a number of mistakes in the text and made many suggestions for improvement. He even realized that there was a mistake in an equation! The fact that he found that error was a striking testimony to the care he took. Harry also gave a number of detailed comments to either explain his thinking on proposed changes or to invite us to check the proposed changes for consistency. Harry's timeliness, his help with billing to ensure we could claim the expenses against research grants, and his kindness in general were on par with his editing work. We will definitely work with him again.”
Marco Celentani, Associate Professor at University Carlos III de Madrid
Harry just recently edited my first book and did a wonderful job. His work was excellent, and all my interactions with him were professional. Harry’s editing made my writing clearer and helped me better express my thoughts. He also did a fantastic (and quick!) job on the index. For anyone writing in philosophy, politics, and economics, I cannot recommend his services enough.
Brian Kogelmann, Assistant Professor at University of Maryland
Harry provided outstanding editing for a number of my articles. Extremely valuable to me has been Harry's extensive background in philosophy and economics. Harry is well versed in the terms of art and stylistic conventions in these academic areas and I find his editing more than anyone else's helps my work improve within those conventions. Beyond the technical issues of grammar and catching my mistakes, Harry has an exceptionally keen eye for improving the flow and style of academic writing along with clarity or precision. I highly recommend his services.
Chad Van Schoelandt, Associate Professor at Tulane University
“This is the first time I asked Harry to edit my paper. Although the service I used was light copy editing, he corrected many errors and typos, including subtle ones. He completed the task very quickly at a very reasonable price. I will ask him for help in the future.”
Kazuhiro Yuki, Associate Professor of Economics at Kyoto University
“Harry David has edited several of my papers and I can witness that he is a fantastic editor. He is reliable, extremely accurate and also incredibly good at grasping the point and intent of your writing. I had tried other professional editing services in the past, but he is just on a whole different level. In the end, you get the feeling that he really cares about what he is doing and knows exactly how to make your work look at its best.”
Valeria Ottonelli, Associate Professor at University of Genoa
“Harry is an outstanding copy editor and proofer with an unsurpassed attention to detail. He is easy to work with, on time, and thoughtful in his feedback. It is not easy to find an editor who works within deadlines and is affordable. Beyond his ability to correct a manuscript for grammar and syntax, he gets ideas and offers suggestions to make an argument clearer. I was most impressed and will continue to work with him, as I have no doubts about what he brings to his well-honed craft.
Khalil Habib, Associate Professor of Philosophy and Director of the Pell Honors Program at Salve Regina University
“I can't recommend Harry's editorial services enough. Harry corrected the many grammatical and style mistakes he found in my paper and provided helpful suggestions that further increased the clarity of my writing. Harry's incredible attention to detail, and his knowledge of submission guidelines and journal expectations, helped me improve the paper so that I now feel quite confident submitting it to a highly ranked journal. Harry can count on my repeat business in the future.”
Marta Podemska-Mikluch, Associate Professor of Economics at Gustavus Adolphus College
“I hired Harry to copy edit a 104-page manuscript. He returned it ahead of schedule with 2,080 corrections. I was ecstatic because I could see how much his work had improved the clarity of my writing. But then when I proofread it once more, I found one mistake that he didn´t catch. My elation was immediately deflated. I expected him to catch 2,081 out of 2,081 mistakes, not 2,080 out of 2,081. I will probably make use of his services again because his track record is much better than mine (I only caught 1 of the 2,081 mistakes) but I hope he tries harder.
David Howden, Professor of Economics at Saint Louis University at Madrid
“It has been a pleasure to work with Harry. He is timely, courteous, and professional. He has helped me on several papers that are either published or gotten R&Rs in economics journals. I have recommended him to my colleagues.”
Ben Le, Associate Professor of Economics at the University of South Alabama
“Harry was quick, efficient, and thorough. Despite running my paper by several colleagues and through multiple conferences and seminars, Harry was able to make countless edits and helpful corrections.”
Daniel J. Smith, Associate Professor of Economics at the Johnson Center at Troy University
“Harry David did proof-reading, editing and indexing work for my recent book with Glen Whitman, Escaping Paternalism: Rationality, Behavioral Economics and Public Policy (Cambridge U Press). He also proof-read and edited my book with Gerald O'Driscoll, Austrian Economics Re-Examined: The Economics of Time and Ignorance (Routledge). Harry's skills are outstanding. His attention to detail is unparalleled. He is also a far better indexer than you would get with any publisher. His knows economics so he is sensitive to economists' expressions and concepts. His rates are quite reasonable for the level of quality he delivers. I recommend him highly and will use his services again in the future.”
Mario Rizzo, Associate Professor of Economics at New York University
“Harry copy edited a few book and paper projects of mine. He was very timely, professional, and had a keen sense of attention to detail with each project I sent him.”
Peter Boettke, University Professor at George Mason University
“Harry David’s linguistic revision of my paper was extremely helpful: he not only corrected some mistakes, but improved the language, introducing idiomatic sentences and offering better wording for some phrases. I am entirely satisfied with his job and I would recommend him for academic linguistic revision.”
Roberto Mordacci, Professor of Moral Philosophy, Vita-Salute San Raffaele University, Milan
“Harry copy edited my proposal and sample chapters for my book Truth-Default Theory currently under review at University of Alabama Press. The editing was timely, professional, and above all really helpful. I will use Harry's services again.”
Tim Levine, Distinguished Professor at University of Alabama at Birmingham
“Harry's work has proven indispensable for the publication of Advances in Austrian Economics. He is timely with a strong attention to detail. His background expertise and familiarity with the subject matter of academic economics and the history of ideas provided us a strong sense of confidence and ease that his editorial discretion would enhance the clarity and readability of our final copy. Our volumes have been completed on time and most certainly improved by his professional efforts. I would not hesitate to recommend him to others, as I regularly do to colleagues and friends.”
Daniel J. D’Amico, Associate Director of the Political Theory Project and Lecturer in Economics at Brown University
“Harry copy edited two papers and, as a non-native English speaker, I highly recommend his services. He is knowledgeable scrupulous and reliable while providing a quick reply. More particularly, he helped me to improve not only the form of my paper but also the substance of my arguments.”
Marian Eabrasu, Associate Professor at European Business School Paris
”Harry is extraordinarily professional, efficient, and accurate. He keeps projects and tasks moving forward and is committed to mutual success. He has the rare ability to refine and polish sentences with a perceptive lightness of touch, revising only where necessary. He is very careful with technical expressions and (in my case) the philosophical jargon, and is always able to capture the very essence of the text. He is absolutely reliable in terms of meeting deadlines and accommodating about terms of payments. I am very grateful for the work Harry has done for me and looking forward for more collaboration in the future.”
Maria Paola Ferretti, Vetretungsprofessorin in International Political Theory at Goethe University Frankfurt
“Harry is a great translator and editor. Harry worked with me on several projects. They were accepted for print without reservations. Harry works quickly and reliably. We will definitely cooperate in the future.”
Katarzyna Szalonka, Professor at University of Warsaw
“I have used Harry as an indexer for two book volumes now, one co-authored book and one edited volume in philosophy. I cannot recommend him highly enough for both types of projects. He is very communicative, exceptionally flexible, understanding, knowledgable, and professional. I wouldn’t think of using someone else, and would completely trust him for other tasks as well.”
Bas van der Vossen, Associate Professor in the Smith Institute for Political Economy and Philosophy and at Chapman University
“I hired Harry David recently to edit the draft of a manuscript for scholarly publication and got so much more! Not only did he catch every single error, but he also provided thorough explanations with each that helped me to meet the standards of the journal in an expedited manner. So, I have no qualms hiring him for my future projects. His expertise, attention to detail, and flexibility are unmatched. And I appreciate his professionalism, flexibility, and very reasonable fees. I strongly recommend Harry to any academician who looks for a professional editor.”
Assad Tavakoli, W.T. Brown Distinguished Professor of Economics at Fayetteville State University
“Harry proofread and edited a couple of article for me. He does an excellent job. I highly recommend him. I hope to use his services even more in the future.”
Philipp Bagus, Professor at Universidad Rey Juan Carlos
“It is a great pleasure to recommend Harry David. Over the last two years, we’ve used him for a variety of writing styles. He’s helped with academic, popular/social media projects, and writing for policy makers. He is quick and easy to work with. Several times, we've needed a quick turnaround, and Harry has been super fast.There have also been a few projects where we changed our direction after the project started. Harry took that all in stride and got us deliverables quickly.”
David Mitchell, Associate Professor of Economics at University of Central Arkansas and Director of ACRE Scholars at National Dong Hwa University
“Harry copyedited a book that I edited. I found Harry to be efficient, precise, and responsive to instructions and feedback.”
Omar Al-Ubaydli, Associate Professor of Economics at George Mason University
“Harry is an outstanding copy editor. He did a wonderful job helping me turn a rather dry and technical, co-authored paper that did not flow very well into an easily digestible and clear paper that was quickly accepted for publication by a great journal. Harry is not only a precise and diligent proofreader, but also gives great stylistic advice and structural feedback. His phrasing suggestions were spot on and his clarifying questions and attention to detail made the process of finalizing this paper exceedingly smooth and easy.”
Diana W. Thomas, Associate Professor of Economics at Creighton University; Director, Institute for Economic Inquiry
“Harry is an excellent editor. I am a native English speaker who writes well. Harry made me a better writer. Harry's edits made my articles clear, concise, and more focused.”
John B Horowitz, Professor of Economics at Ball State University
“We were very satisfied with the services provided by Harry. He reviewed our article fast and the communication was great. The edits were comprehensible and helped making our article a clearer, more convincible read. I recommend him highly!”
Arndt Reichert, Professor of Health Economics and Development Research at University of Hannover
"My co-authors and I contacted Harry on very short notice to edit a 6,500-word paper in the field of International Business. Fortunately, he was able to fit the task into his busy schedule and did an excellent job. The delivery time was perfect, and his suggestions for changes were clear and appropriate. We will definitely return to him in the future."
Francesco Lissoni, Professor of Economics at the Bordeaux School of Economics
“Harry did an excellent job editing two of my econ papers, going above and beyond to improve their readability and flow. Not only did he catch a number of typos in the main text and provided feedback/comments, but he also carefully edited the appendices and tables, ensuring that every aspect of the documents was of the highest quality. Additionally, his use of Overleaf made the editing process seamless and convenient. I highly recommend Harry's services to any researcher looking to improve their work, and I am confident that he will deliver exceptional results.”
Matias Busso, Principal Economist, Research Department at Inter-American Development Bank
“Harry is an excellent editor and proofreader. However, I find his structural editing to be the most valuable of all. If the structure is not right, no amount of editing and proofreading is going to change a weak paper into a strong one. When I am not sure about a paper [and] am late on a looming deadline, then I can count on Harry to fix the paper with structural editing.”
Mark Thornton, Senior Fellow at the Ludwig von Mises Institute
“I'm the program manager at a University based research center and have worked with Harry David on a variety of projects during my time here. He's fast and good. I'm always pleasantly surprised by how quickly Harry is able to get his edits back. One of his greatest strengths is his background in economics. He's able to both understand denser material but also offer helpful suggestions on how to improve the work based on your desired audience. Highly recommend.”
Christy Horpedahl, Program Manager, Arkansas Center for Research in Economics
“The Texas Public Policy Foundation works with Harry as our primary external editor. He provides great editing skills—for both copy and context editing, a great depth of knowledge of public policy, and sound understanding of free market principles. He helps us with everything from one page issue briefs to our most complex research papers. The final result is that Harry's editing helps us ensure our research is of superior quality.”
Bill Peacock, Vice President of Administration at Texas Public Policy Foundation
“Harry created a fantastic index for our book. He not only delivered the index ahead of schedule, but also included suggestions for copyedits for our manuscript. His work highlights his understanding of economics as well as his skill as an indexer and copyeditor. I highly recommend Harry for your editing needs!”
Stefanie Haeffele-Balch, Deputy Director of Academic and Student Programs at Mercatus Center at George Mason University
“Harry did a fantastic job of editing hundreds of pages of economic writings for me. He has excellent editorial skills. He also has an advanced understanding of economics with which he was able to make content suggestions when requested. He was punctual, cordial, and most of all he was dedicated to accommodating my
preferences cheerfully and carefully. I recommend him highly and without reservation.”
Don Chambers, Professor of Finance at Lafayette College
“In February 2018 I asked for a linguistic revision of one of my papers to Harry David: he was very quick and his work was very good.”
Giacomo Samek Lodovici, Professor at Catholic University of Milan
“Harry was a treat to work with. He greatly improved the readability and structure of the manuscript. His edits reflected an expertise in economics. Finally, he was efficient and turned the paper around quickly.”
Timothy Beatty, Professor of Agricultural and Resource Economics at UC Davis

Sahar Akhtar, Associate Professor of the Practice at Georgetown University
“Harry copyedited my book, Liberal Politics and Public Faith: Beyond Separation (Routledge), and composed the index. He was uniformly excellent. I had a short deadline, but Harry met it with ease. I needed a subject index and an author index, and Harry provided me with both. I've known Harry for a long time and working with him is always a pleasure. He is kind, patient and helpful. And his price was extremely attractive.”
Kevin Vallier, Associate Professor of Philosophy at Bowling Green State University
"My experience with Harry David has been nothing but positive. He is fast, professional and competent. There are two things about his work that I particularly value. First, he understands the jargon and particularities of economic research very well. Second, he respects the style and voice of the authors. I would recommend him to anyone who writes economic papers.“
Igor Letina, Associate Professor at the University of Bern
“After receiving feedback from an editor that ‘a copy-editor was badly needed,’ I knew to reach out to Harry for help. He provide timely feedback and suggestions (much faster than I was expecting) and thanks to his training in political economy, he caught several instances where the argument could be made stronger and more concisely. I fully plan on using him for future papers and manuscripts.”
David Hebert, Associate Professor of Economics at Aquinas College
“Harry is very professional. He helped me edit several papers in the field of economics and finance. He can always return a satisfactory edited paper timely.”
Juan Lin, Associate Professor of Finance at Xiamen University
“Harry copy edited several academic articles for me. He always did a fantastic job. I very much appreciate the high quality and speed of his work. I will definitely use his services in the future.”
Marek Hudik, Professor of Economics at Prague University of Economics and Business

Sofie Möller, Postdoctoral Researcher at Normative Orders, Goethe University Frankfurt
“Harry's copy-editing has been wonderful. Thanks to his background in economics, he thoroughly understood the original intentions in my economics papers, ensuring that the content remained true to my vision while enhancing clarity and readability. His attention to detail and deep grasp of both economic concepts and the nuances of language have greatly improved the overall quality of my work. I highly recommend his services to anyone seeking a meticulous and insightful editor.”
Seunghyun Lee, Assistant Professor of Agricultural economics at Montana State University
“I asked Harry to help me shorten a 13,000-word paper in AI ethics. Harry completed the task very quickly and did a great job. He cut around 2,250 words from my paper, which was very helpful. The paper was accepted by a well-regarded philosophy journal, and Harry’s edits not only made the size of the paper more manageable but also made it much more readable.”
Parisa Moosavi, Assistant Professor of Philosophy at York University
“As I am not a native English speaker I always faced difficulties in writing a clear and well-structured text for an academic journal. My colleagues recommended Harry. He considerably improved the quality of the paper. Working with Harry was fast, smooth and efficient.”
Ivan Deseatnicov, Assistant Professor of Economics at HSE University
“Harry has been a great help in getting my papers ready for publication. Communication is always easy. His work speaks for itself. Having him edit directly in Overleaf made the whole process very easy for me and my coauthors. I definitely recommend him to anyone.”
Sergio Ocampo, Assistant Professor of Economics at University of Western Ontario
“Harry worked very quickly and thoroughly on heavy copy-editing for a journal article. Going beyond copy edits on grammar and spelling, Harry improved the quality and clarity of the writing. In addition, Harry made the pricing and timing of the work transparent."
Charlotte Ambrozek, Assistant Professor of Economics at University of Minnesota
“Harry has edited three of my articles and two co-authored pieces. His suggestions were very accurate and sensitive to the terminology used in my field of research. His advices have improved the style and the communicative efficacy of the texts. The turnaround is very quick and Harry is always available to provide further clarifications after copy-editing. Highly recommended!”
Ilaria Cozzaglio, Postdoctoral Fellow in Political Theory at Goethe University at Frankfurt
"Harry copy edited an econometrics paper of mine. I was impressed with his understanding of the concepts and terminology, and his ability to use that knowledge to finesse my writing. His edits ensured the prose better reflected my intended meaning while also making it much more concise. And his astute comments and questions allowed me to further refine the paper. I highly recommend Harry."
Veton Zeqiraj, Assistant Professor of Finance and Management, University of Prishtina
“I used Harry to copy edit a few articles of mine in political theory/political philosophy, which were later published in peer-reviewed journals. He is great at his job and extremely flexible in meeting your needs. For example, he once cut several hundred words from an article that I had already tried to streamline as well as I could, and he managed to do that without interfering with the substance of my argument. Also, his fees are reasonable and turn-around times pretty fast.”
Gabriele Badano, Postdoctoral Research Fellow at University of Cambridge
“I’ve sent Harry multiple pieces over the years and there’s a reason I keep using his services. Harry is remarkably thorough and works quickly. He asks questions and points out when things are unclear or need additional attention. He’s made my writing better and I’m grateful!”
Abigail Blanco, Assistant Professor of Economics at University of Tampa
“If you are writing an article without collaborators, do yourself a favor and use Harry David's services. Excellent editing, useful comments, and a quick turn-around time are what you can expect.”
Kevin Lynn, Lecturer in Social Sciences at Troy University
"Harry has edited three co-authored papers of mine, and each time he has proven to be indispensable. Not only did he catch numerous grammatical and technical errors, but he also provided valuable substantive suggestions, highlighting where the analysis was incomplete or the argument needed clarification. Harry consistently met deadlines, respected the scope of his role, and was a pleasure to collaborate with. His attention to detail and deep understanding of the material are qualities that AI simply cannot replicate. I highly recommend Harry for any editing work."
Jiri Hnilica, Department of Strategy, University of Economics, Prague
“I have asked Harry to copyedit and proofread two academic articles and I was struck by his precision, accuracy, and rapidity. His comments and suggestions are always intelligent and helpful, and he is able to improve one’s arguments by making them clearer and more readable, though preserving the original tone. He is extremely reliable and easy to work with. He provides an excellent service and I strongly recommend him.”
Giulia Bistagnino, Research Fellow in Political Philosophy at University of Milan
“Two years ago my friends recommended me Harry as a copy editor. From the beginning I’m very satisfied with his work and our cooperation. Harry is professional and always works in a timely and accurate manner. He doesn’t have any problems with scientific articles. I highly recommend him.”

“Harry's professionalism, promptness, and expertise are exceptional. His work gets my highest recommendation.”
Jason Swadley Canon, Programs Manager at Institute for Humane Studies
“I have worked with Harry in projects in different fields and with different co-authors. I am impressed by how quick he was able to grasp the tone of the manuscripts and adjusted the editing style to it. He immediately grasps which expressions and concepts are standard in that subfield of the literature and should not be changed, while spotting when one gets lost in jargon. On top he was able to improve our writing without changing our intended tone by any means. In several occasions his language edits helped us to detect also the potential to improve in the logical structure of the argument. The quick and smooth turnaround directly in overleaf serves as the cherry on top.”
Johannes Schneider, Assistant Professor of Economics at Universidad Carlos III de Madrid
“I was quite satisfied with Harry's work in copy editing an econometrics paper of mine. And his help on my paper on monetary policy was indispensable. I really appreciate Harry's attention to detail."
Bulat Gafarov, Assistant Professor of Economics at University of California, Davis
“Harry David has been editing my academic articles for nearly five years. He has a good eye for clumsy prose and recommends changes that improve clarity while retaining the author's voice. His substantive comments on content and structure have enabled me to make more effective arguments. I am very grateful for his efforts and am happy to recommend him to others.”
William J. Luther, Assistant Professor of Economics at Kenyon College
“Harry has reviewed two research articles for me. His work has been incredibly helpful and precise both times. Not only did he do an amazing job in polishing our English, he would also follow the content in great detail and help us make our arguments more precise and efficient. In addition, his work has always been very quick.”
Christoph Carnehl, Assistant Professor of Economics at Bocconi University
“It's my pleasure to recommend Harry. I was recommended to contact Harry by my professor when I needed the first chapter of my PhD thesis edited.

Valeria Lauria, Postdoctoral Fellow at Peking University
“Harry edited one article for me. I would definitely recommend him. He was responsive, efficient, and made creative and helpful suggestions to improve the text. I really had the impression that he got into the substance of the article, and thought hard about possible alternative word choices that would make it easier for the reader to follow the article's argument. His work is very professional.”
Arthur Ghins, Postdoctoral Researcher at the Centre for the Study of Representative Institutions, Yale University
“I have come to appreciate Harry's care and professionalism in the copy-editing of complex theoretical texts. His sensitivity to the written language enables him to provide valuable advice and guidance. With his help, my papers have not only improved linguistically, but have also achieved a higher level of clarity and coherence. Harry is a dedicated professional - he is precise, accurate and fully reliable. I could not recommend him more.”
Francesco Tava, Senior Lecturer in Philosophy at University of the West of England
“Harry has provided fantastic copy editing for me for more than five years (since I was a PhD candidate). Harry’s service not only helped me to defend my PhD thesis, but also provided support on my publications. My papers were improved a lot after Harry polished them. Harry is truly a professional editor!”
Wanlin Lin, Postdoctoral Fellow in Facility of Social Science at the University of Hong Kong
“Harry is an amazing editor. I've used HD Editorial services on many occasions. He is excellent at making edits without losing the essence of the argument. And he is a master at removing redundant words and sentences. He offers more than just copy editing services, and also points out inconsistencies in the argument and sometimes offers substantive comments. He always finishes on time and is extremely reliable when working on a tight deadline. My papers are always better after Harry has worked on it.”
Shruti Rajagopalan, Assistant Professor at State University of New York at Purchase
“Harry helped me copy edit two of my academic papers covering topics in development economics and political economy. In both cases he did superb work. There were many small issues with the writing that became obvious, and impossible to “unsee”, once he highlighted them. With his help, the articles flowed better and became easier to read. He was also professional, responsive and he returned the articles in under one week (despite one of the papers being over 70 pages long). I will definitely request his help again in the future.”
Juan S. Morales, Assistant Professor of Economics at Collegio Carlo Alberto
“Harry provided excellent copy editing and proofreading of a policy paper for me. His comments were very detailed and numerous, but all very helpful and on-point. Harry did an excellent job of meeting a tight deadline, and carefully explained the rates for a rush job. His rates are competitive, and he carefully explained the different rates he charges for different levels of copy editing. Harry has my highest recommendation!”
Jeremy Horpedahl, Assistant Professor of Economics at University of Central Arkansas
“Harry provided excellent editing services for two of my articles. He is well-read which means that he understood the arguments made in the articles. As such, he could provide suggestions that preserved the ‘core’ meaning while improving delivery. This is a rare ability as many copy-editors only delete passive writing, typos and bad grammar. Basically, he goes the ‘extra mile’. For that kind of service, the price is quite fair!”
Vincent Geloso, Assistant Professor of Economics at King’s College London
“Harry is a fantastic copy editor. So far, I have worked with him editing two academic articles and plan to use his services more often moving forward. He is extremely time-efficient and has a wealth of knowledge of field-specific language outside his own specialty. He will be my first recommendation if one of my colleagues looks for similar editing assistance.”
Alicia Plemmons, Assistant Professor of Economics at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville
“Harry rescued me from an odd predicament. I had a conditionally accepted paper, but the editor decided at the last moment that I should rewrite it because its working paper version was ‘published’ (as a dissertation chapter). Harry went through each sentence, and rewrote them for me. He had a solid understanding of the literature, and grasped what each paragraph was trying to convey. In cases where the logical structure was off/confusing, Harry pointed them out. Harry handled the entire process with great professionalism. He communicated very clearly, and completed the task well before the promised date. I will never look for another editor as long as Harry is willing to provide his services.”
Veeshan Rayamajhee, Assistant Professor at North Dakota State University
“I hired Harry to copy-edit and index my forthcoming book, which will be published by Cambridge University Press. Harry did an amazing job - he is a very careful, thoughtful and precise professional who also is very acquainted with academic jargon. His work on the index was particularly impeccable. Harry managed to create a complex index by meeting the standards of the press and he did so pretty fast. I hugely recommend him.”

His suggestions and corrections have been extremely helpful to improve my works and have them accepted by highly ranked international journals. I definitely recommend him to academics working in ethics and related fields.”
Maria Silvia Vaccarezza, Assistant Professor of Moral Philosophy at University of Genoa
“Harry has reviewed one article and one review dossier for me. He gave substantial and concrete suggestions rather than technical comments like some other editors that I worked with did.

Harry is very easy to communicate with, clear about the price and expected time to return the project, and willing to continue responding to follow-up questions, which I really appreciate. His editing services are highly recommended!”

Alexander Salter, Assistant Professor of Economics at Berry College
“Before asking Harry for help, I have tried three different proofreaders. It turns out Harry provided the best service. He is the most professional one. Unlike many others who only correct the words or sentences, Harry looked at a big picture and gave us valuable feedback on our academic research paper's structure. Harry also provided many comments to push us to think a better way to convey our idea by using different phrases.”
Sharon Xuejing Zuo, Assistant Professor in Economics at Fudan University
“I asked Harry to copyedit several articles of mine and I have always been very happy with his work. Besides his outstanding competence, he is always willing to talk about his reviews and clarify any doubts you might have about any changes he has suggested. I totally recommend his copyediting services also because of his quick turn-around times: a few times I asked him to copyedit something for me in a few days, and he's always been extremely helpful. Working with him is always a pleasure.”
Michel Croce, Research Fellow in Philosophy at University of Edinburgh
“I am the art director of a multi-million dollar publishing company and I've been working with Harry to have our books copy-edited for the past years. He is extremely responsive, reliable and provides great turn-around times while also being very detail-oriented and great at following directions. Each of our editors is different to work with and has different ideas about copy-editing and indexing but Harry always manages to adapt and put out great work. I would definitely recommend Harry for all of your copy-editing and indexing needs. He cares.”
Susanne Clark, Art Director, Agora Financial and Laissez Faire Books

Vladimir Maltsev, Lecturer in Economics at the Financial University
“Harry David's service proved invaluable in improving the clarity of our economics article.

José Jurado Vadillo, Postdoctoral Fellow at Carnegie Mellon University

Harry is also consistent in his communication and efficient in his work.”
Matthieu Debief, PhD Student in Political Theory at the University of Geneva

I am looking forward to working with him in the future as well.”

In face, I was fortunate to have Harry work on my next book (non-fiction) as well.”

Alessandro Volpe, PhD Candidate at Università Vita-Salute San Raffaele
“I am a PhD candidate from the University of London, I have published 5 academic papers in different peer reviewed journals and all of them have been beautifully edited by Harry David. English is not my native language and I am far from a great writer; nonetheless Harry has showed the skills not only to edit my writing and improve it, but also he is great at understanding the intelectual content of the subject matter (he holds after all a M.A. in Economics) and grasp what it is implicit or underlying in your writing and make it appear in clear text and on plain English in a way that I cannot possible do single-handedly. I have nothing but great comments on Harry's work and I would have probably never gotten my papers accepted if it weren't from Harry's editing and comments. He is professional, smart, accurate, fast, responsable and also is flexible to work under tight deadlines due to revise and resubmit processes. I 200% recommend his services.”
Pablo Paniagua, PhD Candidate at King's College London

Though I am not a native speaker and my paper is not very “regular economics”, he didn’t seem to have any problems in working on my paper; when anything was unclear to him, he suggested corrections in comments among which I could always find the proper ones. He is very fast and responsive. I am happy with his service and I would definitely recommend him for copy-editing.”
Merve Burnazoglu, PhD Candidate at Utrecht University School of Economics

Kosho Tanaka, Lecturer at Faculty of Economics, Kanazawa Seiryo University
