This book is a basic read on Islam and Muslim women, written by a couple who has spent most of their lives working with Muslims. Their role was within a Christian organization, and they provided social assistance, teaching, and filled needs of Muslims wherever they happened to be. They made many mistakes along the road, which they include in the book, but they also learned a lot about Muslim women and their lives. There's not a whole lot here that can't be gleaned from other books about show more women in Islam, but it's a decent read and I appreciate the authors' hard work in the field and dedication to social justice. show less
This is a revised, republished version of New Paths in Muslim Evangelism (1980)
