Good book for the right reader. If you are new to the grant writing world, and writing a mostly research oriented grant, this is the book for you. If you have more experience, or are seeking a grant for practice or program implementation, you may find it less relevant.

The textbook was a good resource. I mainly used it for a grant writing Ph.D. class.
