Successful Grant Writing by Laura N. Gitlin and Kevin J. Lyons

If you ever have to write a government grant this book gives a thorough, if tedious, explanation of the process. It is written for academics who need to find funding for research, training projects, or demonstration grants. The authors started by illustrating their information with a personal anecdote but dropped it midway through the book. This is a dry technical manual that really does demystify the process of preparing, drafting, and receiving a federal grant for the health and human services fields.
