Unveiling the Breath - One Woman's Journey into Understanding Islam and Gender Equality (Paperback)

Unveiling the Breath is a narrative nonfiction book that examines the dilemmas of gender harmonization in a globalizing world--a world that Donna Kennedy-Glans has observed firsthand through her business experience and humanitarian work. It incorporates East-West perspectives, faith and feminism, male and female points of view, ways to reconcile spirituality and patriarchy, and the issues involved in raising sons. Yet, as she explores the quandaries of gender in both East and West, Donna perceives more similarities than differences. The book unpeels the "Gender Onion" starting from the outer, more secular layers of our globalizing world, the workplace, and communities, to the inner core of our private world of faith, spirituality, and family.
