书籍简介：

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. If any of this sounds familiar, chances are that you're a woman. Invisible Women shows us how, in a world largely built for and by men, we are systematically ignoring half the population. It exposes the gender data gap – a gap in our knowledge that is at the root of perpetual, systemic discrimination against women, and that has created a pervasive but invisible bias with a profound effect on women’s lives. 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. From government policy and medical research, to technology, workplaces, urban planning and the media, Invisible Women reveals the biased data that excludes women. In making the case for change, this powerful and provocative book will make you see the world anew.

书友短评：

@ 酸奶 本书探讨了大数据时代下的性别数据鸿沟。这个专为男性设计和由男性建造的世界忽略了一半人口的需求，从数据收集阶段就发生了“男性偏倚”（male-bias）。作者为我们揭示了政府政策、城市规划、职场环境、医学研究和生活用品的设计是如何普遍又无形地忽略女性的需求，如何给女性的生活产生不利影响的。作者为读者开启一个全新的认识世界的视角，以此反思生活中那些普遍的性别歧视。想要实现性别平等，就需要认识到男女存在差异，并从女性的需求去设计制度、产品、服务，尊重和支持她们的选择。而要让女性的需求被考虑，就要欢迎女性参与到各领域的决策中来，让她们的声音被听到，才能让社会上一半的人口不再隐形。 @ 希培 作者还是有在认真写书的，数据也蛮多。我只是一直不太明白把性别研究搞成性别对立的意义何在。宇宙和历史大部分情况下是无序的，但越能从无序中找到有序（无论男女），谁就有历史的话语权，而非谁把感情/感觉（如果非要说这是女性中心视角的话）表达地越清楚谁就有话语权。个体的人、人类存在的根本目的是繁衍、发展，只有有序的领导者才能书写历史。讲性别平等的目标设立在追求媒体、制度、公共设施的比率公平上（不是说这些不重要），非要强行建立二元对立（且不论还有gender is a spectrum主义兴起），并不能解决根本问题啊。
