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

3.0

This is a really good and important read. I have the utmost respect for the author's work of reciting study after study, for putting them in context, and for drawing sharp conclusions. I've gained a new understanding of how data can be biased and I have many intriguing facts up my sleeve that I can drop at parties (once they're a thing again). The only thing that bothered me from time to time was the binary understanding of gender that dominated most of the chapters. I understand that this understanding was important to her book because the studies she worked with also applied a binary sex/gender division. However, I was hoping for some meta commentary on that. Anyway, this is a highly informative and feminist book which was a joy to read!
