issianne's review against another edition
5.0
This was truly spectacular. And I don’t say that about non-fiction very often. I *highly* recommend both this book and reading it as an audiobook. Eberhardt presents a lot of data and statistics, and the audiobook makes it easy to digest and understand. I loved the psychology of it all with the bits of sociology and even brain circuitry. Eberhardt feels very objective without being apathetic and gave personal experiences when it was necessary (sometimes both of these points get muddled in non-fiction that’s not a memoir). Anyway, I loved it and will be recommending this one from now on!

Very insightful book about all different biases we face without even realizing it. It was written in a more textbook style, which isn't always my favorite. However it was an important read, that will make me take a further look at why I do the things I do.

I really liked that there was a lot of data in this book about studies on bias that was backed up with personal accounts, sometimes from the author and sometimes from people she knew. I kind of feel like it lacked a flow that other books I've been reading had, so there were times I would zone out because I forgot what was being discussed.

This book was assigned for COUN 5902 and I fell behind on my readings. I would love to go back and finish part 3 when I have the time. (I have no idea if this explanation is public I'm writing it as a memo to myself)
