Research Projects and Research Proposals : A Guide for Scientists Seeking Funding

Rating:
Summary: A clear instructional emphasizing practical needs
Review: Expertly written by Paul G. Chapin (a former director of the National Science Foundation Linguistics Program, and member of the American Association for the Advancement of Science), Research Projects And Research Proposals: A Guide For Scientists Seeking Funding is a no-nonsense, practical, methodically organized and "user friendly" guide to presenting professional-quality applications for grants and proposals. Individual chapters address how to identify appropriate funding sources, the nuts and bolts of writing a proposal with a budget and all the details a review board needs, ethical matters to remain aware of, how to manage a grand and renew a proposal when needed, and much more. A clear instructional emphasizing practical needs and responsibilities, Research Projects And Research Proposals is an absolute "must-have" reference for any scientist faced with the difficult task of raising funds for their department or project.
