Produktbeschreibung
In an age when Western feminism is constantly undergoing redefinition, this reprint offers, to the worldwide debate, sixteen authoritative contributions from the surprising setting of Muslim countries. These studies address the feminist modes of expression in relation to, or as a challenge to, Islamic laws and traditions.

The first Saudi Arabian woman to earn a doctorate degree from the University of Oxford, the author has been lecturing extensively in Europe and the USA on Middle Eastern life.
