520    Following the Islamic Revolution of 1979 and the re-
       introduction of Sharica law relating to gender and the 
       family, women's rights in Iran suffered a major setback. 
       However, as the implementers of the law have faced the 
       social realities of women's lives and aspirations, 
       positive changes have gradually come about. Here Ziba Mir-
       Hosseini takes us to the heart of the growing debates 
       concerning the ways in which justice for women should be 
       achieved. Through a series of lively interviews with 
       clerics in the Iranian religious center of Qom, she seeks 
       to understand the varying notions of gender that inform 
       Islamic jurisprudence and to explore how clerics today 
       perpetuate and modify these notions. Mir-Hosseini finds 
       three main approaches to the issue: insistence on 
       "traditional" patriarchal interpretations based on 
       "complementarity" but "inequality" between women and men; 
       attempts to introduce "balance" into traditional 
       interpretations; or a radical rethinking of the 
       jurisprudential constructions of gender. She introduces 
       the debates among the commentators by examining key 
       passages in both written and oral texts and by narrating 
       her meetings and discussions with the authors. Unique in 
       its approach and its subject matter, the book relates Mir-
       Hosseini's engagement, as a Muslim woman and a social 
       anthropologist educated and working in the West, with 
       Shii'i Muslim thinkers of various backgrounds and views. 
       In the literature on women in Islam, there is no account 
       of such a face-to-face encounter, either between religion 
       and gender politics or between the two genders. --
