Karsh and Fox’s work is primarily geared towards writers of socially oriented grants. Its examples include primarily social causes, not basic research. I work in the sciences, and this book does not include many examples of these kind of projects. However, it’s guiding advice and principles certainly can apply to those type of projects, too. I’m just going to have to read another book geared towards scientific grant-writing, too.
I honestly lack the experience to judge the trustworthiness of this Karsh and Fox’s advice. Like many potential readers, I am more in need of insight than able to judge reliability. Nonetheless, the communication style is clear and expressive. Obviously, this book, now in its fifth edition, has gone through many rounds of editing. Its voice is mature, and its points, well-thought-out.
Of special note, the authors have consulted grant givers extensively in the preparation of this book. As such, this book offers useful, practical tips towards garnering a favorable response. They even include several chapters of “roundtable” advice that explore relevant topics. For decades, Karsh was a grant giver in a prior career, and Fox, a grant writer. Their powerful combination produces much insight. Especially for projects aligned for social impact, this book provides a healthy repository of advice that should be consulted before any proposal words are written.… (plus d'informations)
