"Invisible Women: Data Bias in a World Designed for Men" by Caroline Criado Perez highlights how societal data often overlooks women, leading to significant gaps in research, design, and services. The book illustrates how most data is collected based on male norms, affecting everything from healthcare to public transportation. As a result, women’s needs are frequently neglected, leading to harmful consequences. Criado Perez calls for awareness about this data bias, emphasizing the importance of inclusive research to create a more equitable world that considers the experiences and needs of all genders.
