This book is about how women are left out of the data gathered on pretty much everything. Topics covered range from town design, the design of cars and medicines that work differently on men than on women. I think this is a very important topic and something that definitely needs to be addressed. The author does tend to repeat herself which started to annoy me a bit. The book is also pretty dry reading. The author does sometimes intersperse personal stories which helped liven things up but there were sections when I lost track of the point because there were so many studies cited in a row.
