520    Muslims who explore sources of morality other than Islam 
       are threatened with death, and Muslim women who escape the
       virgins' cage are branded whores. So asserts Hirsi Ali's 
       meditation on Islam and the role of women, the rights of 
       the individual, the roots of fanaticism, and Western 
       policies toward Islamic countries and immigrant 
       communities. This controversial book is a call to arms for
       the emancipation of women from religious and cultural 
       oppression and from an outdated cult of virginity. It is a
       defiant call for clear thinking and for an Islamic 
       Enlightenment. But it is also the courageous story of how 
       Hirsi Ali herself fought back against everyone who tried 
       to force her to submit to a traditional Muslim woman's 
       life and how she became a voice of reform. She relates her
       experiences as a Muslim woman so that oppressed Muslim 
       women can take heart and seek their own liberation.--From
