I find it difficult to believe that you can "completely proof" a book in 8-15h. "Completely proof" to me means comparing the ebook to the original source material comma by comma, letter by letter, word by word, line by line. I've been proof-reading books for many years and can't manage more than 10 pages an hour, or some 40h for a 400 page book.
