Book excerpt: Exploding the myth that struggles for women's rights are alien to societies that embraced Islam, this book profiles women who defied and changed the contours of women's lives from the eighth century to the mid-1950s. These trailblazers fought for personal rights and bodily integrity, extended solidarity to women and other downtrodden people, improved their societies as scholars, saints and political activists.
