In this episode, we talk about both of her books, and focusing particularly on the reasons behind men and women’s choices in terms of academic paths and professional and career choices; the gender pay gap, and the many factors that go into it; the fragilities and strengths of men and women; the gender equality paradox; the importance of socialization; how face-to-face communication contributes to the stability of social bonds; Sardinian villages, the island of Okinawa, and what we can learn from traditional societies and traditional ways of living; the poverty of digital communication; and the societal benefits of religion.
