this autumn were up by 15% this january, according to ucas, the universities and colleges admissions service. a spokesman for the royal economic society said applications to do economics at a-level were also up. professor john beath, the president of the society and a leading lecturer at st andrews university, said his first-year lectureswhich are open to students from all departmentswere drawing crowds of 400, rather than the usual 250. “there are a large number of students who are not economics majors, who would like to learn something about it. one of the things i have done this

subjects. nursing saw a 15% jump, with peoples renewed interest in careers in the public sector (部门), which are seen as more secure in economic crisis. a recent study showed almost two thirds of

possibly higher rates of other diseases such as heart disease and high blood pressure. thats why a new study of french workers is welcome news. led by hugo westerlund, a professor of psychology at stockholm university, the study of more than 14,000 workers found lower rates of depression and fatigue (疲劳) in people after they got tired while they were still employed. the scientists followed the employees of the french national gas and electric company for 14 years. they found in the year immediately after retirement, the volunteers reported 40% fewer depressive symptoms than they had in the
