{"product_id":"nimos-war-emmas-war-cynthia-enloe-9780520260788","title":"Nimo's War, Emma's War: Making Feminist Sense of the Iraq War","description":"Nimo, Maha, Safah, Shatha, Emma, Danielle, Kim, Charlene. In a book that once again blends her distinctive flair for capturing the texture of everyday life with shrewd political insights, Cynthia Enloe looks closely at the lives of eight ordinary women, four Iraqis and four Americans, during the Iraq War. Among others, Enloe profiles a Baghdad beauty parlor owner, a teenage girl who survived a massacre, an elected member of Parliament, the young wife of an Army sergeant, and an African American woman soldier. Each chapter begins with a close-up look at one woman's experiences and widens into a dazzling examination of the larger canvas of war's gendered dimensions. Bringing to light hidden and unexpected theaters of operation--prostitution, sexual assault, marriage, ethnic politics, sexist economies--these stories are a brilliant entryway into an eye-opening exploration of the actual causes, costs, and long-range consequences of war. This unique comparison of American and Iraqi women's diverse and complex experiences sheds a powerful light on the different realities that together we call, perhaps too easily, \"the Iraq war.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Cynthia Enloe\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0520260783\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780520260788\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of California Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/02\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.03lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.98h x 6.04w x 0.78d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/17\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2010 pg. 156","brand":"Cynthia Enloe","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43946698047743,"sku":"9780520260788","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_713d9e54-173d-4c88-833e-e51f477f0447.jpg?v=1681514622","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/nimos-war-emmas-war-cynthia-enloe-9780520260788","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
