'Nothing delights me more than a well-written and well-researched book that teaches you and never bores you' Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie ' HELL YES. This is one of those books that has the potential to change things - a monumental piece of research' Caitlin Moran Imagine a world where... · Your phone is too big for your hand · Your doctor prescribes a drug that is wrong for your body · In a car accident you are 47% more likely to be injured. If any of that sounds familiar, chances are you're a woman. From government policy and medical research, to technology, workplaces, and the media. Invisible Women reveals how in a world built for and by men we are systematically ignoring half of the population, often with disastrous consequences. 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 profound impact this has on us all. Find out more in Caroline's podcast, Visible Women . 'A book that changes the way you see the world' Sunday Times 'Revelatory, frightening, hopeful' Jeanette Winterson Review: interesting look at invisible woman - This is a book full of facts about how women aren’t visible compared to men and how much of the things that we design from the seatbelts that we wear to the drugs that we take, tends to be given on a default basis around the male population. - I believe that we do live in a world of inequality whether it be with wealth, race and gender. Most societies live in a patriarchal society, only many people who don’t think will believe that. Many such as Trump or the Andrew Tate’s of the world who think that women have all the rights and that men have none, which is a complete nonsense as this book clearly demonstrates, are unlikely to read this book. But if enough women and their friends read it, then maybe they might just change at least some understanding that this is an unequal world full of inequality when it comes to gender, whether we be talking about the past or the current time. The data that the author presents can somewhat slightly overwhelmed you as you read. And the first part of the book is data heavy with a few stories worth reading. - SOCCIETY: The problems in this world of invisible women is that many men have lived in a mainly paternalistic society and many countries still live with that role. Many of whom tell themselves stories about how the world is becoming so unfair for men, and women are taking over and other illusions which are just so untrue. The sad truth of the matter is the stories out trump data, facts and reality. - WORK: There is no such thing as a non-working women or women work. It's just some work like men but are not paid for the important work at home of looking after children. These are all still important jobs and important skill set just because one person goes out to make some money and the other ones stays at home, that they must raise a family doesn't mean to say there isn't quality in all of that. - SCIENCE AND MATHS: The book looks at many rate reasons for why women have been overlooked so and one example is that many women were drawn to doing all the computer programming but they didn't have the rigidity of obsession which is very characteristic of males and that includes people on the autistic spectrum and so it was then they never seemed as important. Worth watching the film ‘Hidden Lives’ about the women who were overlooked and yet contributed so much to putting astronauts and pilots in space and on the moon. - AGRICULTURE: Women are never asked about agriculture and yet in many countries where they are the leading people in the farming communities. Then they might be cooking on a stove which gives off an much smoke as carcinogenic as someone smoking 100 cigarettes a day. - TECHNOLOGY: Voice recognition is another example where iPhones and computers are more accurate for men and has been more tested with male voices than with female voices and another example of bias against women. - BIRTH: Things like breastfeeding machines are poorly designed and yet we want women who can't, for example breastfeed with a baby on their breast, to be able to give express breastmilk for feeding a baby by bottle. Yet these machines that are designed for women are poorly stretched, often painful, and do not allow them to do anything else. - The same can be said of a prolapse which affects 10% of women in giving birth, which could be improved and supported by pelvic exercise and yet there's very little support with that and very little data on vaginas and things that can be fitted to support such a condition. - CAR ACCIDENTSL There's lots of information about the increased of injury to women as opposed to men when it comes to car accident due to car crash dummies are all tested on men’s shape and not women. - MEDICATION: It's interesting to know how many pieces of medication which will be consumed more by females than males that have only ever been tested on male subjects and yet this book quite conclusively demonstrates from the cellular level and beyond that women's bodies work and function, integrates with drugs in very different ways than they do with men and yet these aren't counted in the research when carried out. - HEALTH: Women are more likely to get heart attacks than men but will present in a very different or more atypical presentation such as instead of holding their hand and touching their chest as men do, they'll get stomach pains and different symptoms but these then get failed to be recognised. Many physicians in America know that it’s women that get more heart attack and it's a leading cause of death in women then in men. Is this due to it not being recognised as it is in men as it presents in a different manner regarding symptoms. - POLITICS: When it comes to politics or statements of public life it's interesting to know how often women are interrupted or conceive as being "bitch" in regard to Twitter or social media and often perceived when they are acting in the same way as men as being ‘overly aggressive’ when men wouldn't be given the same sort of status in what they might have said. - A fascinating and rich book, data heavy but still a readable book with lots of food for thought. It should be read by both men and women. Review: Essential Reading - A great exposure of gender bias and it's impact on many areas of science, medicine and every day life. The Chapter on disaster responses should be compulsory reading for everyone contributing the relief funds. A reminder that you need to ask where you money is going and who it benefits. All undergraduate students, no matter what the discipline would benefit from reading this. ## Features - New Store Stock ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 1,498 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 5 in Engineering & Technology 20 in Computing & Internet | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 12,138 Reviews | ## Images ![Invisible Women: the Sunday Times number one bestseller exposing the gender bias women face every day - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81y93o7IKdL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ interesting look at invisible woman *by J***W on 14 July 2025* This is a book full of facts about how women aren’t visible compared to men and how much of the things that we design from the seatbelts that we wear to the drugs that we take, tends to be given on a default basis around the male population. - I believe that we do live in a world of inequality whether it be with wealth, race and gender.

The Chapter on disaster responses should be compulsory reading for everyone contributing the relief funds. A reminder that you need to ask where you money is going and who it benefits. All undergraduate students, no matter what the discipline would benefit from reading this. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Finally, the data behind every day inequality! *by P***S on 18 October 2025* This book 📕 is very informative and thought provoking. It’s also infuriating if you’re a woman! You will feel both anger and validation through reading this book. There’s lots of facts and figures and data throughout. Would recommend not reading all in one sitting, however, this is a must read! ## Frequently Bought Together - Invisible Women: the Sunday Times number one bestseller exposing the gender bias women face every day - Fix the System, Not the Women - Men Who Hate Women: From incels to pickup artists, the truth about extreme misogyny and how it affects us all --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/185275769-invisible-women-the-sunday-times-number-one-bestseller-exposing-gender](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/185275769-invisible-women-the-sunday-times-number-one-bestseller-exposing-gender) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-09-15*
