Today is International Day of Women and Girls in Science - so proud of the work of GSA schools, often in partnership with state schools, that enables girls to pursue a future in science. In many GSA schools STEM A levels are the most popular. #GSAUKstem unwomen.org/en/news/in-focus…

If #ChineseNewYear has inspired you to pick up a book, here's our pick of fiction, from classical Chinese fiction to unflinching contemporary writing.
ALT The book cover for A Concise Chinese-English Dictionary for Lovers by Xiaolu Guo, which shows the back of a woman with long, dark hair against an abstract red background with green leaves around the edges.
ALT The book cover for Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio by Pu Songling, shows a classical Chinese painting of a man in a red robe, holding an open book from which a cloud of smoke is emanating. A red dragon can be seen in the cloud of smoke.
ALT The book cover for China Dream by Ma Jian shows a bare-leaved tree against a yellow background.
ALT The book cover for The Day the Sun Died by Yan Lianke shows the title in large text against a white background.
