 We deal with the existence of weak solutions for a Neumann problem 
involving the p-Laplacian with asymmetric nonlinearity. We show that 
our result gives new conditions on the right hand side which assure the 
existence and localization of at least one weak solution. In particular, 
we make a comparison with a result obtained in a recent paper by S. 
Villegas where he studies the same problem using a different approach.
 
 Keywords: Variational principle, critical point, weak solution, Neumann problem, 
p-Laplacian.
