More Than a Glitch: Confronting Race, Gender, and Ability Bias in Tech - Paperback

by Meredith Broussard (Author)

"Broussard argues that the structural inequalities reproduced in algorithmic systems are no glitch. They are part of the system design. This book shows how everyday technologies embody racist, sexist, and ableist ideas; how they produce discriminatory and harmful outcomes; and how this can be challenged and changed."--
