About this book
The story
When Benazir Bhutto became prime minister of Pakistan in 1988, many claimed that it was a blasphemous assault on Islamic tradition since no Muslim state, critics alleged, had ever been governed by a woman.
But Fatima Mernissi examined fifteen centuries of Islamic history and discovered that the critics were wrong.
