Book Reviews of Evidence and Procedures for Boundary Location
Book Review: Many of us are not Survey Lawyers or RPLS's yet.
Summary: 2 Stars
I realize that there is a lot of pressure to sound & speak intelligently when a person writes a book. Many people who read this book are intelligent & speak with high vocabularies. There's nothing wrong with intelligent communication. But realize that many people who read these books are not lawyers, RPLS's, or even SIT's yet & try to teach with the heart of a teacher. After all, the reason for writing this book should be to teach people in a way that allows them to understand. The goal is not to impress others with your intelligence. It's obvious that you are intelligent or else you wouldn't be in your position. But are you able to explain things in a way that most people with surveying experience can understand, if not, you are missing out on what a teacher has & thinks is important. I'm sure there is a lot of great information in this book, but when I have sat down to read it, I lost interest because of the difficulty in reading. I know surveying is not an easy subject, but there are easier ways to explain things. I am not trying to put your book down, but with the talk I have heard about there only being so many surveyors, & many of them being older, maybe we ought to be thinking of everyone who would like to become an RPLS. I have been surveying for many years, & this book should be new & even difficult information, but not so difficult to read that I want to return it. I would think more of the authors if they would write to be more easily understood, than to sound more intelligent to others. A teacher's goal is to be understood. There is nothing more satisfying to him than to be understood by his students.
