Invisible Women: Data Bias in a World Designed for Men by Caroline Criado Pérez

5.0

Essential read - may already be aware of some of the points raised in this book, but seeing them all together, structured the way they were, really drives the message home. It's a classic catch 22 - we don't collect data on marginalized folks and lack of data doesn't allow us to see the scathing gaps.

This book made me angry, upset and disappointed, but also left me with hope for the future because now we are talking about fair representation and this ignorance is not permissible or normal anymore.

So much of the discrimination is normalized and if nothing else, this book questions the accepted definition of "normal" in context of gender.
