For courses in world religions, women and world religions, gender studies, or women's studies.
The main focus of Women and World Religions is women as active agents of their spiritual lives—a topic that is omitted from most other world religion texts. It explores how women from many parts of the world have thought about, acted within, and been treated as members of various religious traditions. The selected readings in each chapter address such questions as: “How have women practiced religion?” , “How have their beliefs differed from those of men?” , and “Have they successfully carved out a separate sphere for their own spiritual activities?”
