Book description
This book is designed to help researchers achieve success in funding
their National Science Foundation (NSF) research proposals. The book
discusses aspects of the proposal submission and review process that are
not typically communicated to the research community. Written by
authors with successful track records in grant writing and years of
experience as NSF Program Directors, this book provides an insider's
view of successful grantsmanship. Written in a practical approach, this
book offers tips that will not be found in official paperwork and
provides answers to questions frequently asked of NSF Program

skills and improve your chances of funding.
