Description
Muslim women, symbols of honour for their men, speak out and take us into the volatile heartland of Islam, the world's fastest growing religion. Price of Honour recounts a wide range of telling, often horrific stories about the ways in which Muslim women are abused and oppressed by their menfolk, and shows how restrictions on women act as a barometer for measuring both the growth of fundamentalism and the Muslim regimes' willingness to appease extremists.
An informed, candid and controversial look inside Muslim society - and a powerful wake-up call to the world.
