Data Bias in a World Designed for Men.
Caroline Criado Perez reveals how the gender data gap shapes the world around us, often with serious consequences for women’s safety, health, time, and economic well-being. Across everyday life, the workplace, public spaces, transportation, technology, and medicine, she shows how systems designed around the male experience can overlook women’s needs and reinforce inequality.
Drawing on hundreds of studies from around the world, Criado Perez exposes the hidden biases built into the data we use to make decisions and design our societies. Engaging, illuminating, and deeply researched, Invisible Women offers a compelling look at the unseen ways gender inequality is embedded in modern life—and challenges readers to see the world differently.
