Invisible Women: Data Bias in a World Designed for Men by Caroline Criado Pérez

Did not finish book. Stopped at 29%.
Pretty good book, very eye opening to the way the world is designed ONLY around the needs of men as a default. DNFed because the text was a little repetitive and very statistics heavy.
