Voices Behind the Veil

The World of Islam Through the Eyes of Women

 By Ergun Mehmet Caner - This groundbreaking work, written by Christian women intimately familiar with the world of Islam and Islamic women, looks at the real experience of Muslim women at every stage of life: as children, wives, mothers, sisters, and as religious adherents.  Each of the women contributing to this work, ranging from missionaries in Islamic countries to journalists and former Muslims, powerfully yet respectfully portray what it means to be a voice behind the veil.
