When Women Didn't Count: The Chronic Mismeasure and Marginalization of American Women in Federal Statistics

Erroneous government-generated "data" is more problematic than it would appear. This book demonstrates how women's history has consistently been hidden and distorted by 200 years of official government statistics.


• Provides new ways of thinking about the history of women in the United States

• Examines the systems used to gather and publish federal statistics, identifying their strengths, weaknesses, and biases

• Demonstrates the need for applying critical thinking skills even when examining assumedly trustworthy statistics from official sources

• Reveals how details of women's lives in the United States have been erased or disguised in data that is considered authoritative and reliable
