    Please note an update on the cover title the work "Practice" should be plural "Practices." This was an oversight on the submission process and is not being held against anyone. Please note the change however for future submissions.

    The font treatment of submission 13 is well liked by the reviewing team.
    The clean look and style of submission 7 is also getting good marks.
    A more subdued treatment of the IIA logo seems to be favored as well. While the IIA logo needs to be on the publication prominent placement of the logo is not required.

    I wanted to let you all know that I and the team at The IIA have been very impressed with a number of the submissions. I'm trying to keep you updated with ratings and will get some additional feedback on Friday to share with all of you, later that afternoon.

    Thank you for your creative efforts and support.

    This book is beginning to look more like an atlas than an auditing book?! A little too much earth/globe, dont you think?
