In this episode, I sat down with Paul Morland,  author of the book Tomorrow's People: The Future of Humanity in Ten NumbersWe discussed: The driving  role education plays in demography and its link to decreased infant mortality and agricultural productivity. How technology is making people more productive but still: A Bookkeeper has more to worry about than a Dustbin man if robots ever take over. How 25% of Japanese under the age of 40 have never had heterosexual sex and whether this may happen in the UK/US in the near future considering the younger generation spends more time on technology rather than engaging with each other through more traditional social means (face to face!) And finally the average age of a population and the link between this and their appetite for war/ revolution.The Book and Audiobook: Tomorrow's People: The Future of Humanity in Ten Numbers is out now.As of now, the podcast is biweekly and prior to an episode I’ll let you know what book/audiobook I’ll be listening to before the next show so we can delve into it together!Please don’t forget to subscribe to the podcast so you’re in the loop whenever a new episode comes out… and also connect with me on Instagram or email so we can keep the conversation going and share with each other fascinating content. www.instagram.com/SoundsAboutPodI am now on goodreads!www.goodreads.com/SoundsAboutPod Are you an author that will like to be  on the next episode of the podcast?Listeners: Did I cover a book you read or listened to?
