This month we are reading Caroline Criado-Perez's book 'Invisible Women - exposing data bias in a world designed for men'.
Imagine a world where your phone is too big for your hand, where your doctor prescribes a drug that is wrong for your body, where in a car accident you are 47% more likely to be seriously injured, where every week the countless hours of work you do are not recognised or valued.
From government policy and medical research, to technology, workplaces, urban planning and the media, Invisible Women reveals the biased data that excludes women.
Award-winning campaigner and writer Caroline Criado Perez brings together for the first time an impressive range of case studies, stories and new research from across the world that illustrate the hidden ways in which women are forgotten, and the impact this has on their health and well-being. In making the case for change, this powerful and provocative book will make you see the world anew.
It doesn't matter if you've read the whole book, half of it or just the first 10 page, all our welcome to our friendly and fun Feminist Book Club. Come and join in the conversation.
