The 'How To' Grants Manual: Successful Grantseeking Techniques for Obtaining Public and Private Grants (American Council on Education Series on Higher Education) Feature

This highly acclaimed, best-selling book in the ACE Series has been created for novice grant seekers who need instruction on how to begin the grants process, as well as for seasoned grant seekers who want to learn new techniques to save time and increase their success rate. Now in its seventh edition, this book will help you work smarter, not harder, in the pursuit of grant support. Several colleges that use this system report success rates of 75 percent. This new edition of The "How To" Grants Manual seeks to improve success rates to an even higher percentage.

Advances in technology and changes in grants and research programs -- due to changing institutional budget priorities -- have prompted the author's preparation of this seventh edition. Revisions to grant-seeking strategies have caused the author, working with grantors and advisory groups, to retool the manual's worksheets and communications templates. These extremely useful supplementary materials are available on the Rowman & Littlefield website at www.rowmanlittlefield.com/ISBN/1442204184.

China's Emerging Private Enterprises: Prospects for the New Century Feature

China's economy has grown rapidly over the past decade. At the same time, it has undergone a fundamental change, from complete reliance on state-owned and collective enterprise to a mixed economy where private enterprise also plays a strong role. By 1998 the domestic private sector had grown to about 27 percent of gross domestic product, making it second to the state enterprise sector in economic importance. A constitutional amendment in 1999 formally recognized this shift, thereby laying the foundation for the private sector to emerge from the shadows and play a prominent role in China's future development. This study was undertaken in partnership with the State Economic and Trade Commission (SETC) and draws on fieldwork in China in the summer of 1999, along with discussions at a conference in Beijing in April 2000. It also draws on IFC's and the World Bank Group's global experience in promoting private sector development. It offers business owners, managers, and policymakers assistance in identifying an action agenda to help reduce present constraints and enhance the available opportunities.
