Invisible Women

Reviews

“The thoroughness of Invisible Women doesn’t detract from its absolute readability. This is entertaining, scholarly, and so very important.”

“Invisible Women is a game-changer; an uncompromising blitz of facts, sad, mad, bad, and funny, making an unanswerable case and doing so brilliantly.”

“Brilliant…Invisible Women lays out in impressive detail the many ways that human beings are presumed to be male, as well as the wide-reaching effects of this distorted view of humanity.”

“Useful and sobering.”

“Furiously brilliant.”

“A powerful call to bust the myths and bridge the gap.”

“Caroline Criado Perez’s authoritative tone is convincing…[and] her indignant narration paired with well-researched facts will inspire listeners to consider details of the world around them…Speaking in a clear voice and a British accent, Perez sounds incensed and unapologetic. Her passion will incite listeners to action in the face of truly depressing data that proves how dangerous the world is for women.”

“As Invisible Women illuminates…communities pay tremendous costs for the gender data gap: costs of income, time, women’s health, and sometimes women’s lives.”

“Even with all the progress women have made in the last few decades, Invisible Women proves we still have a long way to go. Reading this book—preferably in a comfortably warm room—is the first step.”

“A provocative, vital book.”

“This thoughtful and surprisingly humorous view of institutional bias and gendered information gaps…should have wide popular appeal.”

"[A] diligently researched and clearly written exposé."

“An exposé on the shocking root cause of gender inequality and research, an intimate investigation of the true scope of domestic violence, and a powerful examination of our interactions with strangers.”
