Invisible Women: Exposing Data Bias in a World Designed for Men
CAROLINE CRIADO PEREZ, PENGUIN
From cars designed around the body of a “Reference Man” to speech recognition software trained on recordings of male voices, this book uses data to expose a male-biased world. Campaigner and writer Caroline Criado Perez has put together an exhaustive dossier on databased gender inequality, arguing that the lack of “big data” on women renders half of the world’s population invisible. Perez demands urgent action through a powerful force: facts and figures.
