ABOUT THE AUTHOR

The Authority Gap provides a startling perspective on the
unseen bias at work in our everyday lives, to reveal the scale
of the gap that still persists between men and women. Would
you believe that US Supreme Court Justices are interrupted
four times more often than male ones... 96% of the time by
men? Or that British parents, when asked to estimate their
child's IQ will place their son at 115 and their daughter at 107?

Marshalling a wealth of data with precision and insight, and
including interviews with pioneering women such as Baroness
Hale, Mary Beard and Bernadine Evaristo, Mary Ann exposes
unconscious bias in this fresh feminist take on how to address
and counteract systemic sexism in ways that benefit us all.
