Although in print for well over a decade now, Elizabeth Castelli and Rosamond Rodman’s volume, Women, Gender, Religion: A Reader is still an excellent collection of essays to introduce a reader to the study of gender and religion. It is a credit to the authors and editors that the selected essays do not feel dated. In fact, those addressing women and gender in relation to Islam, and women in the Global South, are still quite relevant today.
