Title

Woman in Islam

Description

"This book examines the subject of woman in Islam from a largely historical standpoint. Attention is focused on the main Islamic countries; that is, the Arab world, Turkey, Iran, and Mogul India. Islamism in Black Africa and east and Southeast Asia requires special treatment, and has not been covered here. Even with these limitations, it has been possible to touch only the surface of the wealth of material available. Nevertheless in dealing with the wide-ranging and diversified subject of woman in traditional Islamic countries, every effort has been made to draw a well-rounded picture, avoid sweeping generalizations, and adequately justify statements and conclusions."--The foreword.
