Publisher's Synopsis

'Gracie tells the story of her struggle and eventual triumph as a way of encouraging us, of changing our society, of giving us all courage . . . Equal is a very important book' Sandi Toksvig

Equal pay has been the law for half a century. But women often get paid less than men, even when they're doing equal work.

Mostly they don't know because pay is secret. But what if a woman finds out? What should she do?

In Equal, award-winning journalist Carrie Gracie covers her own experience of holding her employer - the BBC - to account and investigates why we're still being paid unequally. Equal will open your eyes, fix your resolve and give you the tools to act - and act now.

'Equal tells a personal story that changed the public debate' Guardian
'Pulls no punches' Sunday Times
'Full of sound advice for women' Observer

'A gripping personal story told with warmth and wit' Julia Gillard, former Australian Prime Minister

Longlisted for the Financial Times Business Book of the Year Award 2019
