Synopsis
The outsider’s impression of Muslim women is often colored by media portrayals on the news, which tend to reinforce Western ideas of gender. This anthology interrogates questions related to women in Islam from a variety of diverse perspectives. Readers will learn about key issues such as the relationship between the Quran and how gender roles are practiced, and the concept of religious dress as a form of liberation, not oppression. Experts make arguments that challenge status quo notions., Greenhaven Press’s At Issue series provides a wide range of opinions on individual social issues. Each volume focuses on a specific issue and offers a variety of perspectives-eyewitness accounts, governmental views, scientific analysis, newspaper and magazine accounts, and many more-to illuminate the issue. Extensive bibliographies and annotated lists of relevant organizations point to sources for further research. Enhancing critical thinking skills, each At Issue volume is an excellent research tool to help readers understand current social issues and prepare reports. Book jacket.
