Now with a new Preface and Afterword by the author “Outstanding . . . [Isobel Coleman] takes us into remote villages and urban bureaucracies to find the brave men and women working to create change in the Middle East.”—Los Angeles Times In this timely and important book, Isobel Coleman shows how Muslim women and men across the Middle East are working within Islam to fight for women’s rights in a growing movement of Islamic feminism. Journeying through Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, and Pakistan, Coleman introduces the reader to influential Islamic feminist thinkers and successful grassroots activists working to create economic, political, and educational opportunities for women. Their advocacy for women’s rights based on more progressive interpretations of Islam are critical to bridging the conflict between those championing reform and those seeking to oppress women in the name of religious tradition. Socially, culturally, economically, and politically, the future of the region depends on finding ways to accommodate human rights, and in particular women’s rights, with Islamic law. These reformers—and thousands of others—are the people leading the way forward. Featuring new material that addresses how the Arab uprisings and other recent events have affected the social and political landscape of the region, Paradise Beneath Her Feet offers a message of hope: Change is coming to the Middle East—and more often than not, it is being led by women. Praise for Paradise Beneath Her Feet “Clearly written, deeply moving, and wonderfully enlightening.”—Reza Aslan, author of No god but God “[An] engrossing portrait of real Muslim women that reveals how Islamic feminists . . . are working with and within the culture, rather than against it . . . to forge ‘a legitimate Islamic alternative to the current repressive system.’ Coleman doesn’t diminish the enormity of the struggle, but she argues convincingly that it might yet rewrite Islam’s future.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review) “A nuanced view of Islam’s role in public life that is cautiously hopeful.”—The Economist “Eye-opening . . . Deeply religious, profoundly determined and modern in every way, these are twenty-first-century women bent on change. Hear them roar and see a future being born before our eyes.”—Booklist

Foreign correspondent Jenny Claiborne, undercover FBI agent Ernesto Cruz, and veteran CIA operative Mitch Garvey, Jr. (each representing an individual in the biblical parable of the sower) have been selected for a special, divinely appointed test, a test on a scale and magnitude not seen since the days of Job. In their own way, each will play a pivotal role in hastening or delaying the rise of the Antichrist; gaining the attention of both the Angels of Light and the Angels of Darkness. In a desperate race against time, the Angels of Darkness gain permission from the Godhead for one last test of faith; a grand spiritual challenge between the forces of good and the forces of evil with the salvation of millions hanging in the balance. Behind the Veil: Angels of the Apocalypse examines the end of days from the perspective of the angels tasked with carrying out the signs and wonders to be wrought upon the Earth as the Rapture approaches. It is a fictional work based on biblical concepts, and takes an innovative approach to exploring the intriguing life and work of Gods silent sentinels.
