Helen Lewis returns with a new series of interviews with people offering radical solutions to the big problems we face, and explores how their personal experiences drive their work and thinking. In her book The Double-X Economy, the economist Linda Scott explains how, in her view, cultural assumptions hold back women's economic potential. Drawing on both recently-available data, and her own first-hand experience in the developing world, she tells Helen how she thinks this potential could be liberated using a series of practical solutions. And why she believes that liberating the Double-X economy could change the world for the better. Producer: Phil Tinline
