Reseña del editor:

Many people think that they do not need a book on "how to write a really bad grant application" - they already know how. Actually, this book is intended as a guide to writing grant applications that will get funded. One way to write a good grant application is to avoid writing a bad one. This book analyzes "bad" scientific grant applications from a humorous perspective. There are also some sections on obtaining funding from private foundations and industry, and a few parts that are pure silliness. All pieces in this book are original and are either fiction (the humor pieces) or non-fiction (the serious advice). The reader will hopefully be able to tell the two apart.

Biografía del autor:

Lloyd Fricker has written several bad grant applications, and thus is an expert on the subject. He has also written a number of applications that received "outstanding" scores and were funded by the National Institutes of Health, private foundations, and companies. He served for many years as a reviewer for NIH and other public and private funding agencies. In addition to his serious scientific publications, Lloyd Fricker has published several dozen humor articles in a variety of journals (Annals of Improbable Research, The Journal of Irreproducible Results, and many others); some of these articles have been widely circulated on the internet. When not writing humor, the author is a Professor of Molecular Pharmacology at Albert Einstein College of Medicine.
