From economic development to health care to education and public policy, we rely on numbers to allocate resources and make crucial decisions. But because so much data fails to take into account gender, because it treats men as the default and women as atypical, bias and discrimination are baked into our systems. And women pay tremendous costs for this bias, in time, money, and often with their lives. Celebrated feminist advocate Caroline Criado Perez investigates this shocking root cause of gender inequality in Invisible Women. Examining the home, the workplace, the public square, the doctor's office, and more, Criado Perez unearths a dangerous pattern in data and its consequences on women's lives. Product designers use a 'one-size-fits-all' approach to everything from pianos to cell phones to voice recognition software, when in fact this approach is designed to fit men. Cities prioritize men's needs when designing public transportation, roads, and even snow removal, neglecting to consider women's safety or unique responsibilities and travel patterns. And in medical research, women have largely been excluded from studies and textbooks, leaving them chronically misunderstood, mistreated, and misdiagnosed. Built on hundreds of studies in the US, the UK, and around the world, and written with energy, wit, and sparkling intelligence, this is a groundbreaking, highly readable exposé that will change the way you look at the world"--Jacket Frau (DE-588)4018202-2 gnd Daten (DE-588)4135391-2 gnd Diskriminierung (DE-588)4012472-1 gnd Geschlechtsunterschied (DE-588)4071781-1 gnd Bias (DE-588)4133271-4 gnd Sex discrimination against women Male domination (Social structure) Gender mainstreaming Research Social aspects Data mining Social aspects Big data Social aspects SOCIAL SCIENCE Gender Studies bisacsh Male domination (Social structure) fast Sex discrimination against women fast Social sciences Research fast Bias (DE-588)1148696725 gnd https://unisg.link/hm00662222 Inhaltsverzeichnis BK020000 XK020000 XK020000 UECON-20190927 nebis EN N04-20200825 nebis EN NEBIS N04 N04 N04FH HQ 1154 Cr 1 IDSSG 100 1- Criado-Perez Caroline 1984- (DE-588)1179396731 Verfasser aut IDSSG 856 4- https://unisg.link/hm00662222 Inhaltsverzeichnis NEBIS 100 1- Criado-Perez Caroline 1984- (DE-588)1179396731 Verfasser aut NEBIS UZH50 https://opac.nebis.ch/F?func=service&doc_library=EBI01&local_base=EBI01&doc_number=011461542&sequence=000001&line_number=0001&func_code=DB_RECORDS&service_type=MEDIA Titelblatt und Inhaltsverzeichnis VIEW pdf UECON_011461542_TB-Inhalt_006763351.pdf SWISSBIB 566867311 ORANGE 566867311
