By Rachel Ross| The Herald (Scotland) Verified The scale of women’s representation in most aspects of employment, business and enterprise in the UK has come close in recent times to achieving the only true measure of equality – that it is unremarkable. But it pays to remember that the advance has taken place over only a lifetime, and that remains something to be celebrated. According to the most recent research from the House of Commons Library, 77% of jobs are held by women in health and social work. In education, it is 70%.

Maybe reading felt like a chore, or maybe high schoolers are too enveloped in their teenage woes to dive into the works of George Orwell. If you were that student who missed important takeaways from classic books, there’s plenty to gain from reading them as an adult. Stories like Catch-22 and To Kill a Mockingbird are far more significant for a grown-up.
