Résumé :	A former Wall Street quant sounds an alarm on the mathematical models that pervade modern life and threaten our social fabric. We live in the age of the algorithm. Increasingly, the decisions that affect our lives are being made not by humans, but by mathematical models. In theory, this should lead to greater fairness: Everyone is judged according to the same rules, and bias is eliminated. But as Cathy O Neil reveals in this book, the opposite is true.
