From the reviews: "It is a rich and diverse set of information brought together in one place. ... This book is a reference resource, useful for any higher education institute or medical facility engaged in any form of biomedical research. Particularly helpful for anyone trying to write NIH grant applications or understand how to fund NIH programmes to complement their own work." (Maria Zambon, Microbiology Today, January, 2010)
