If you've found yourself caught in conversations where the reality of mental illness is questioned or you're curious about psychiatry's stance on the controversial subject, this book could be illuminating. Roth and Kroll provide a well-evidenced counterargument to the viewpoint that mental illness is simply a social deviation. For anyone looking to deepen their understanding of psychiatric practice, or gain historical and cultural context on mental health, this comprehensive exploration could be both enlightening and thought-provoking.

This book would be a great read for those interested in understanding how search engines can create and reinforce systemic racism and sexism. It offers important insights into the ways in which search algorithms are not neutral, but instead favor certain groups over others. The author provides clear evidence of the ways in which black women, in particular, are discriminated against in search results, and offers important recommendations for how we can address this problem. Overall, Algorithms of Oppression is an eye-opening and thought-provoking book that will challenge readers to think critically about the role of technology in perpetuating inequality.
