Using　Lu＇s　continuation　theorem,　the　extension　one　of　Manasevich-Mawhin,　we　study　the　existence　of　periodic　solutions　for　p-Laplacian　neutral　Lienard　equation　of　the　form　(phi(p)(x(t)　-　cx(t　-　sigma))＇)＇　+　f(x(t))x＇(t)　+　beta(t)g(x(t　-　tau(t))　=　e(t).　It　is　meaningful　that　the　coefficient　beta(t)　ahead　of　the　nonlinear　term　g(x(t　-　tau(t))　is　allowed　to　change　sign　in　this　paper,　which　could　be　achieved　infrequently　in　corresponding　papers.　(C)　2008　The　Franklin　Institute.　Published　by　Elsevier　Ltd.　All　rights　reserved.
