Product details
The Sunday Times number one bestseller with over half a million copies sold, "Invisible Women" uncovers the shocking gender bias that affects our everyday lives. Caitlin Moran describes it as "hell yes. This is one of those books that has the potential to change things - a monumental piece of research."
Imagine a world where your phone is too big for your hand, your doctor prescribes a drug that is wrong for your body, or in a car accident, you are 47% more likely to be injured. If any of that sounds familiar, chances are you're a woman.
From government policy and medical research to technology, workplaces, and the media, "Invisible Women" reveals how a world built for and by men systematically ignores half of the population, often with disastrous consequences. Caroline Criado Perez brings together an impressive range of case studies, stories, and new research from across the globe that illustrate the hidden ways in which women are forgotten and the profound impact this has on us all.
Discover more in Caroline's new podcast, "Visible Women." The Sunday Times calls it "a book that changes the way you see the world," while Jeanette Winterson describes it as "revelatory, frightening, hopeful.".
