Invisible Women: Data Bias in a World Designed for Men by Caroline Criado PerezMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Impossible to read without becoming angry and it really does make you look at the world in a new light, even as someone who felt like they were reasonably aware of these issues already - gender bias in design, science and policy is seemingly in everything. My only criticisms are that Criado-Perez is very pro-data as a solution and never really touches upon the manifold issues inherent in data capture, and by the end of the book I became pretty deadened by statistics.
