Bantam Blindspot: Hidden Biases of Good People

Ainda lendo

I had to purchase this book for a class and it was very interesting of the insights this provides and the transparency it can enlighten someone to everyday situations. I've used this in my Step forward towards the health and medical professions.

Muy enfocado a tema psicológico pero súper aterrizado a vida diaria. Nos da un “golpe de realidad” a lo que creemos ser imparciales cuando, en realidad, tenemos muchísimos sesgos inconscientes. Muy buena lectura que incluye algunos ejercicios muy interesantes que vale la pena hacer, para sacarnos de nuestras creencias.

A great book for increasing personal awareness about how much of what we do and think is unconscious. It served as a fundamental guide for my book Understanding Gender at Work. It helped me appreciate why we all have biases and how we can start to deal with them.

A good book, very worth the read. It does take for granted that you are on board with their methodology - they explain their process well but I would have liked to see it tackle some criticism more head on. Regardless, some very interesting points about how to identify bias.
