5.0 out of 5 stars Methodically presenting a variety of effective techniques, August 8, 2003
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
Written by successful grant proposal writer Ken Henson, Grant Writing In Higher Education: A Step-By-Step Guide is a practical, informative, authoritative, and thoroughly "user friendly" instructional guide clearly and methodically presenting a variety of effective techniques for "action research", developing a serviceable writing style, using the best resources technology has to offer, and a great deal more. Grant Writing In Higher Education is emphatically recommended for classroom instructors, support staff members, administrators, alumni support organizations, and anyone involved in or charged with the responsibility of seeking grants to support educational programs, personnel development, academic research, and classroom instruction.
