Award-winning author and women's rights advocate Dr. Nina Ansary takes readers on a 4,000-year historical journey to expose the repercussions of centuries of gender inequality. The book's biographical profiles of fifty forgotten innovators"€"brought to life by international illustrator Petra Dufkova"€"shatter deeply rooted gender myths to tell remarkable stories about groundbreaking contributions to the global community. In 1929, British novelist Virginia Woolf ran her fingers along the spines of the books in her library wondering why no woman in Shakespeare's era had written "a word of that extraordinary literature when every other man, it seemed, was capable of song or sonnet." She concluded, "Indeed, I would venture to guess that Anon, who wrote so many poems without signing them, was often a woman." Nearly a century after Woolf penned those incisive words"€"frequently modified as "For most of history, Anonymous was a woman""€"the phenomenon of female anonymity persists as women worldwide continue to be restricted by society's formal and unspoken barriers. Why does Virginia Woolf's statement still echo in the twenty-first century? Why have women been consistently denied opportunities that are automatically given to men? And why has the historical record failed to adequately recognize notable women? Anonymous Is a Woman. . .exposes the roots and manifestations of institutionalized gender discrimination; dismantles centuries of historical bias through biographical profiles of fifty remarkable, yet forgotten women innovators; and challenges ingrained stereotypical assumptions to advance an unconventional argument for equality and inclusivity. 100% of the proceeds from the sale of this book will be donated.

Refine your heart and mind with the wisdom of Islamic spirituality "To live a meaningful life--one that brings us joy, contentment and fulfillment--we have to do the inner spiritual work of becoming a more complete human being." --from the Introduction Over the centuries, Islamic sages have gleaned timeless spiritual insights and practices from sacred texts, meditation and knowledge of the heart--gems that have been passed down from generation to generation.
