Dr. Savage is a recognized scholar of the work of Karol Wojtyla/John Paul II and has written extensively on several aspects of his thought including his account of the person, his understanding of human work, and his writings on women. For most of the last decade, her primary area of research has been the pursuit of a robust, adequately grounded account of the nature of man and woman, their respective identities, their mission, and their genius – as they find expression in the family, the Church, and the world. The most recent iteration of her theory on man and woman can be found in The Complementarity of Women and Men, ed., Paul Vitz, CUA Press, 2021. Dr. Savage is currently at work on a book entitled Woman and Man.

For the reader's convenience, Dr. Savage's publications have been organized below by subject matter and date of publication.
