Editorial Reviews

Review

A work of high quality. (Choice)

Well-written, accessible, and well-organized. . . . Esposito reviews the four schools of Islamic law, concentrating on the Hanafi and showing the improvements that came for women with Islam. (International Journal of Middle East Studies)

A welcome publication . ... The book is not confined to an exposition of the law; it discusses its origins, development and the modern reform movement. . . .Commendable for [its] careful exploration of a highly intricate and sensitive subject. (The Middle East Journal)

[This] preose and academic study focuses on the historical and legal context for reform, and the methodology and extent of contemporary legal trends, particularly in Egypt and Pakistan. (Library Journal)
