Hello Everyone  Trust all of you are well and safe. The pandemic doesn't seem to come to an end with news of new variants being shared often.  But if  'all good things must come to an end', this should be true for the bad too.  Let's use our time wisely then as we wait for the end of these times.  Sharing 21 articles and one bonus article for this week.  https://www.laphamsquarterly.org/roundtable/only-i-were-official-person https://drb.ie/articles/wild-child/ https://www.historytoday.com/archive/feature/womans-place https://aeon.co/essays/theres-more-to-sparta-than-martial-valour-and-austerity https://daily.jstor.org/what-makes-vaccine-mandates-legal/ https://www.newscientist.com/lastword/mg25333681-300-if-my-brain-atoms-were-replaced-with-identical-ones-am-i-still-me/ https://www.theatlantic.com/culture/archive/2022/01/surrealism-art-charming-monsters/621189/ https://www.nytimes.com/2022/01/10/opinion/snow-winter-2022.html https://aeon.co/essays/anger-is-a-state-of-ag

Reading List by Rochelle Dsouza - Year 2022 Week 1

Dear Readers Happy New Year!  Continuing with the initiative that was started last year of sharing a reading list, I present to you the first list of the year 2022.  The purpose of the reading list is to encourage you to read on diverse topics and read from different sources. This is only a guideline, you are encourage to read beyond this list.  Reading is important /not only for doing well in competitive exams but for shaping your overall personality.  Through this endeavour, I hope to build a community of readers who enjoy the experience of reading and include this activity in their daily lives. Reading has many benefits which we are all aware of. Further, just like exercise, reading helps build an open mind and a kind heart.  Let's promise to read more this year and share the joy of reading with our friends and family.  Sharing a list of 21 articles from various resources.  https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2022/jan/01/different-from-is-correct-and-iconic-is-meaningless-
