Economic Gaps

The book progresses by first defining core concepts like income disparity and economic access, then explores the underlying causes, including occupational segregation and implicit bias in hiring practices. It highlights how the undervaluation of female-dominated roles and challenges in work-life balance further exacerbate these inequalities. For instance, the book reveals how societal norms and unconscious biases often limit women's professional advancement, impacting their overall economic outcomes.

Finally, Economic Gaps proposes strategies to reduce these disparities at individual, organizational, and policy levels. It uses various data sources and analytical methods, bridging economics, sociology, and public policy to offer a comprehensive understanding and potential solutions. This approach makes the book valuable for students, policymakers, and anyone seeking to address gender inequality.
