However, their roles vary in various cultures, religions, and traditions. In some cultures and religions, they are highly honored, while in others they are neglected, oppressed, and segregated. This book examines women's role in a few selected world religions, namely Christianity, Islam, African Traditional Religion, Hinduism, and Buddhism. It also surveys the concept of patriarchy and the various theoretical perspectives surrounding it. Eventually, this book discusses the concept of ecofeminism and how feminists perceive of the relationship between nature and the oppression of women. The book grapples with the question, \"In what way do world religions perceive of women and their role in their teachings and traditions?\" This book is important for students and teachers of gender studies, African theology, and Christian theology as a whole.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Loreen Maseno,Elia Shabani Mligo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1498287328\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781498287326\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wipf \u0026amp; Stock Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/05\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 152\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.72lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.44d","brand":"Loreen Maseno","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48453719556351,"sku":"9781498287326","price":44.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3172e8b5-a248-4c26-85d0-6a95f4930dcb.jpg?v=1777301885","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/women-within-religions-loreen-maseno-9781498287326","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
