Dear ASA Members,
ASA Book Club is ready to kick off this Fall. We have two books and one data curation activity for your choosing:
Book / Discuss 1. The Power Code: More Joy, Less Ego, Maximum Impact for Women (and Everyone) by Katty Kay and Claire Shipman
Book / Discuss 2. The Theory That Would Not Die by Sharon Bertsch McGrayne
Book/ Research 3. Invisible Women: Data Bias in a World Designed for Men by Caroline Criado Pérez - we will each find and prepare referenced data for public use. If you are inquisitive about the topic "data (collection) bias", "user research and design", or the book itself, you are welcome to join this group. Note that the meeting time for this group is fixed at Monday 7pm ET. The group will meet 4-5 times.
You may choose to do both activities or just one. If you are interested, please fill out the form - ASA Book Club sign-up by Wednesday, September 13, 2023. Based on time and activity of your choice, you will be assigned to a small group. Each group will meet 5 times (50 minutes each) until the end of November or early December.
