Re: NEW BOOK: ISO 9001 in Plain English by Craig Cochran

Andy,

It was great seeing you last week in Atlanta. Thanks for the gracious review of the book. The Southern version is coming up next. "Y'all set up yer quality objectives so they gee-haw with your quality policy, yuh hear?" It's going to take some work, but I'm committed to the cause...

So..is the Southerrrnnn verrsshon gonna have mostly pichurs, or whut..?

Actually, I love the South and am taking night classes in "How to talk Southern, for Northern folk. I am even considering becoming a D*mn Yankee, rather than a regular one. (...If you are from the South, you already know what that means...the rest of ya'll will just have to guess... :cool:).

Helmut,

It sounds like you're well on way to mastering Southern English! We'll welcome you in Atlanta anytime; just please don't bring your car. Traffic round here is fixin to ruin ever'thing.

And, yes, the book will have plenty of pictures. Great allusion to D*mn Yankees...

LFC911,

That's a good question! I asked the folks at Paton Professional is they were interested, and they said ISO 14001 books just didn't sell very well. But we'll see. Thanks for asking.

Thanks for the quick reply. Good luck with your book! We'll probably be buying a copy for our new auditors to use to review the standard.

Re: NEW BOOK: ISO 9001 in Plain English by Craig Cochran

Thanks Craig !

Read through it and I definetly agree with the rest !! I´ll be picking up a copy in July when I will be vacationing with my family in Colorado... can´t wait !!!

I especially like the cover design... the use of the ABC blocks was a good choice.

Besides a 14001 version, how about a Portuguese version of your book ? :notme:

Ted,

Thanks for the feedback, my friend. The guy who does most of the covers for Paton Press, Caylen Balmain, is very good. Hope you travel safe out to Colorado. I would love to produce a Portuguese version of the book...with an accompanying Samba soundtrack.

Re: NEW BOOK: ISO 9001 in Plain English by Craig Cochran

The excerpt is quite revealing;). The contents must be good. Why not ask the paton guys to make the book available worldwide thro' bookstores? Not many of the guys here prefer buying online. And then its gona have a short shelf life!

Hope you've started working on the next edition. The TC guys have a big headstart.

Potdar,

Thanks for taking a look at the excerpt. Scott Paton has told me that it doesn't make sense economically to stock the book in bookstores. I do plan to take a few copies with me to conferences, though. Maybe we'll cross paths sometime soon...and I'll have a copy for you. Hope you're doing well.

Craig
