The SBIR program allocates 2.5 percent of 11 federal agencies' extramural R&D budgets to fund R&D projects by small businesses, providing approximately $2 billion annually in competitive awards. At the request of Congress, the National Academies conducted a comprehensive study of how the SBIR program has stimulated technological innovation and used small businesses to meet federal research and development needs. Drawing substantially on new data collection, this book examines the SBIR program at the Department of Defense and makes recommendations for improvements. Separate reports will assess the SBIR program at NSF, NIH, DOE, and NASA, respectively, along with a comprehensive report on the entire program.
Can living with five women drive one man crazy? Join Don Staffin (a.k.a. "The Gardener") on a hilarious three year journey through the Garden of Estrogen. A delightful mix of anecdotes, "flash forwards," and fictional musings serve to shed new light on the relationships between males and females of all ages. Throw into the mix four daughters (three of whom are triplets) and the "Queen of the Garden," and things really get interesting. No self-pity allowed This book pokes fun at men and women alike. Whether you are a man who has at least two females under your roof, or you are married to such a man, you will be laughing at yourself and your spouse as much as you are laughing at the various characters in the book. "Not even Martha Stewart can cultivate a garden this colorful, where men and women can coexist thanks to healthy doses of hilarity-and hormones." -Lesley Abravanel, The Miami Herald "For centuries, men have tried to understand the female mind - a largely futile quest thus far. The combination of witty observation and insight in these 'Postcards' will provide men with hope and both sexes with laughter." -Stephen M. Shapiro, Author of Goal-Free Living
