Kicking us off on episode 1 of our new podcast, Evie has chosen Invisible Women, Exposing Data Bias in a World Designed For Men by Caroline Criado Perez.
Imagine a world where your phone is too big for your hand, your doctor prescribes a drug that’s not right for your body, and in a car accident, you are 47% more likely to be seriously injured. If any of this sounds familiar, chances are that you’re a woman.
Jeanette Winterton calls the book A secular Bible. The Financial Times says it’s like Simone de Beauvoir with data and Nicola Sturgeon thinks it should be required reading for policy and decision-makers everywhere. We think Caroline Criado Perez has created a mind-blowing book that literally changes the way we now see everything.
