Imagine living in a world in which you were routinely patronised by women. Imagine having your views ignored or your expertise frequently challenged by them. Imagine people always addressing the woman you are with before you. Now imagine a world in which the reverse of this is true. 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. *** Have you ever thought about how fascinating the world is, wide open through the pages of a book? Reading is not just a routine activity, but also an unlimited adventure into imagination and knowledge. Reading sharpens the mind, broadens horizons, and enriches vocabulary. It is a gateway to a limitless world beyond us. Set aside a specific time for reading each day. From reading before bed to finding time in the morning, reading habits can be formed with consistency. Choose books based on your interests and literacy level. Start with books that match your desires and reading ability. Find a quiet and comfortable place to read. Adequate lighting, a comfortable chair, and a bit of background music can create a better reading experience. Make notes or keep a journal about the books you've read. Write down your thoughts, impressions, and lessons you’ve gained.
