Subject: The author is a foremost authority on Middle East women's studies. This book combines her own experience of growing up in a Muslim family in Algeria with interviews and real-life stories of other Muslim women. She argues against veiling; stresses that the veil is not included in the five pillars of Islam, and is driven by an organised and growing campaign which includes literature, DVD's and YouTube videos.
