Recenzii
Kevin Guyan's Queer Data, though not a quick read, is very comprehensible to an average reader and is absolutely chockablock with ways to understand how research is conducted and how it systematically discounts queer people (or counts us incorrectly, or codes us incorrectly, or.). If you ever do research on anything involving people-even something as minor as a brand-preference survey-you must read this, absolutely. But even the lay reader with no research aspirations will find so many ways to prove that their homophobic cousin Karen is just plain wrong.
[T]he book does an admirable job explaining the finer points behind the complicated constructs of sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI) and drawing attention to nuances that make it difficult to precisely measure micro-minorities ... the book is a welcome addition on a topic that currently lacks wide attention. Guyan poses provocative questions that practitioners should consider before embarking on research that focuses on sexual and gender minorities.
An accessible read, Queer Data is a must-read to understand why reliable data is necessary to ensure the improvement of everyday LGBTQ+ people, policies, and activist causes.
A brilliant study on how [data is collected] within the LGBTQ community... enlightening reading.
Each of Queer Data's sections provides thought-provoking debates and relevant dilemmas grounded in rigorous academic concepts and rich evidence from practice. In this sense, one of the book's core strengths is how it intertwines complex scholarly ideas with concrete problems that practitioners and activists wrestle within their day-to-day work.

But even the lay reader with no research aspirations will find so many ways to prove that their homophobic cousin Karen is just plain wrong.
A refreshingly clear and practical take which cuts through turbulent discourse and offers a new way of looking at fixing inequalities and responding to threats facing the LGBTQI+ community.
Committed to the project of changing the world for the better for Queer People, this book critically analyses the need to include LGBTQ people in policymaking. It's enormously readable, theoretically informed and supported by evidence.
A unique, powerful call to action. Guyan boldly points out how queer data is ignored, 'straightwashed' or corrupted. It offers a way forward to engage with queer data to shape our own lived experiences. Highly recommended!
Zooming in on lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, and queer (LGBTQ) rights, the book illuminates how increased knowledge about queer identities proves essential as a tool for action, which impacts decision making related to resource allocation, changes to legislation, access to services, representation, and visibility.
This book undeniably deserves a place on your shelf and is a 'must have' for anyone in the academic field.
