Book review: The research funding toolkit

"The Research Funding Toolkit." Jacqueline Aldridge and Andrew M. Derrington. Sage. May 2012. --- Writing high quality grant applications is easier when you know how research funding agencies work and how your proposal is treated in the decision-making process. The Research Funding Toolkit aims to provide this knowledge and teach readers the necessary skills to write high quality grant applications. A must-have for every researcher, whether junior or senior, and should be required reading for every member of a department, writes Simone Belli.
