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.

This is the second I buy. The first lasted for several years and my dogs love it. It is one of his favorite toys. Eventually the string came off, but my dogs kept playing with the bone. Very good quality!

Could use some improvements.
Color: Stick
My Caine corso 15month old puppy destroyed this item in five minutes. The product should have a longer/thicker rope inside tube and a thicker knott at each end of tube. The puppy loves the item but it is destroyed.

Dog loved it, wish it had lasted - better suited for light chewers
Color: Stick
Our puppy was able to pull the rope out of the rubber piece within a day or so. Unfortunately, he then started chewing on the blue rubber piece and had it destroyed in no time. Once the pieces started coming off, we had to throw it away to prevent him from ingesting it.

great for teething puppies
Color: Stick
I have puppies that are 6 weeks old and this toy has been great. They like to gnaw on it as their teeth are erupting. I easy to clean, washer and dryer. I have several other teething toys from same company as I liked this one so much. Would purchase again, highly recommend for teething pups.
