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

informative medium-paced

5.0

I rate non-fiction books 5 stars when they've made an impact on me and changed the way I fundamentally think about something. Invisible Women fits the bill. This book elicited so many emotions in me, but the main one was anger. Reading this book is like realizing you were living in the matrix. In the short time since I've read it I've already become less accepting of the male "defaults" around me. Being a woman is dangerous on so many levels and you don't even realize them until you are confronted by them in this book. I hope more people read this book (and for a piece of non-fiction that is essentially about a data gap it was incredibly readable!), but mostly I hope more men read it.
