Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This book is without a doubt worthy of an award! It is extremly well organized, leaves no rock unturned in terms of what you need to do to write a grant, and makes the reader feel empowered by utilizing Deborahs template for success. In addition, Deborah gives all the little tips and hints that I don't believe most authors would think of that are very helpful and encouraging. It is a joy to read, layed out in a format that is easy to follow, straight forward and written in prose that a person not well versed in grant writing could absorb.This gem of a book could be used to teach grantwriting or merely utilized as a reference by more seasoned grantwriters. Deborah includes a wealth of information throughout the book for clarity, and sites to refer to for specific information.I strongly recommend this excellent text for the novice-that is, if you really want to learn all about grantwriting in one book. This is it!
