Summary
"Explores how men and women relate to each other in monogamous and polygamous marriage, race rivalries, slavery, miscegenation, cultures of procreation, family planning, and the Islamic view of women's dignity vis-à-vis the Western view of women's liberty. In doing so, the author and editor present a multifaceted and dynamic theoretical discourse of gender."--Publishers website
