The three authors (all: nursing, with U. of Oklahoma and Texas Children's Hospital) update this text breaking down the steps of writing grant proposals for nursing goals in accessible text. Along with consideration of types of grants and the grant writing process, the authors also address common clearances needed for many grants as well as the affect of the National Institute of Health's switch to mainly electronic paperwork on the process. More than half of the book comprises appendices which offer examples of grants, standard forms, and other related documents. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
