I’ve had this on my tbr for a long time. I hope we’ll have a nonfiction tag this year.



My brother-in-law recently asked what do you call a doctor who specializes in men's medicine. My sister responded, you call them a doctor, because all medicine is for men. Men are the default.
The conversation is the essence of this book. While most of the time this gender bias is not malicious, it does exist. Perez gives a way to look at the world that is more inclusive to everyone's needs. I recommend this book for everyone, especially those in a position to make policy and social decisions.
