What is the meaning of patriarchy - with The Patriarchs author Angela Saini

Welcome to the "How To Be Books Podcast", guiding you through life's tricky topics and skills by reading through the best books out there. Patriarchy is a system of social organisation in which men hold the power and women are largely excluded from it, which is the discussion we have award-winning science journalist Angela Saini on her new book The Patriarchs: How Men Came to Rule. Patriarchy can be seen in all aspects of society, from the family to the workplace to the government.
