I'm trying to find a copy of "Business Management Handbook for Land Surveyors" by Daniel E. Beardslee, PLS . It appears to be out of print. Does anyone know where I can buy a used copy?

Thanks,
Jeff

Dan was moderately active on this message board's predecessor a few years back but he has kind of dropped out of sight. He was with a company named "Erlandson" for 20+ years which has a number of offices in Washington State. Their website is still up but hasn't been updated in 4 years. They would know where he is, I suggest you drop them a line and get in touch with Dan himself. His book was published in pdf format.

I will try and find a link for you. I am only able to use my phone right now so it will have to wait till tomorrow.

In the meantime, you might try looking up Mark Plog's site; that's where my daughter bought mine:-D

Hi Radar,

I looked for Mark's site and found MXP Consulting and Plog Consulting, but nothing with books. He used to have a site called SurveyPlanet, which is closed down now. Is that the one you were thinking of?

Norman,

For some reason, I didn't think of contacting the author directly, but if I don't find it in the next few days I'll give that a try.

Thanks Guys!

Another good book along the same lines is A Pocket Guide to Business for Engineers and Surveyors.

Yes, that's what I am thinking....

You might try to contact Mark directly, through his web site; I'll bet he knows how to get you a copy.

It's only pdf format on a disc.
