4.0 out of 5 stars Downside of Islam and Downside of Poverty

August 8, 2007

Ghazal Omid

When I first read and reviewed this book I left only a cryptic notation, “downside of Islam” but I neglected the opportunity to point out that the book also captures the downside of poverty as well as the enormous cultural and emotionial indignities toward women that are sanctioned by Islam and not only practiced in Islamic countries but also exported to Europe and the USA, where women are treated behind closed doors in a manner that would put any normal American behind bars for years.
