Gender, Religion and Spirituality

This collection explores the complex links between social and economic development and religious and spiritual belief. Writers explore the scope for promoting women's rights and needs offered by religious belief and practice and analyse feminist responses to fundamentalist regimes which use religious doctrine to justify women's oppression.
