Everything you ever need to know about making it as a scientist. Despite your graduate education, brainpower, and technical prowess, your career in scientific research is far from assured. Permanent positions are scarce, science survival is rarely part of formal graduate training, and a good mentor is hard to find. In A Ph.D. Is Not Enough , physicist Peter J. Feibelman lays out a rational path to a fulfilling long-term research career. He offers sound advice on selecting a thesis or postdoctoral adviser; choosing among research jobs in academia, government laboratories, and industry; preparing for an employment interview; and defining a research program. The guidance offered in A Ph.D. Is Not Enough will help you make your oral presentations more effective, your journal articles more compelling, and your grant proposals more successful. A classic guide for recent and soon-to-be graduates, A Ph.D. Is Not Enough remains required reading for anyone on the threshold of a career in science. This new edition includes two new chapters and is revised and updated throughout to reflect how the revolution in electronic communication has transformed the field.

Legs curl up, panty liners don't stick, front and back are cut exactly the same.
I wear a pants size 8, and purchased an XL in these because I don't like tight underwear. They feel good, and fit well -- not baggy and not tight. However, the legs do curl up, which I might have expected if they were tight, but they're not. Panty liners stick at first, but not all day. And although there is printing on the inside back to provide a clue about what is supposed to be front vs back, there is no difference in the cut. The waist hits a bit lower in the back (on me) than in the front, which is not a deal killer, but, REALLY?? I'll keep these, but will keep looking for a better fit, and legs that don't curl up.

But - you can’t always figure out the back or front
Easy to wash and a good fit.

Super nice shirt!
Color: Black, Size: Small
I actually bought this shirt to wear under zip-up hoodies. It's super soft and cozy. It washes up great and is very durable. I just ordered two more in different colors! A great value - perfect!
