Oxford University Press has just published the third edition of Women and Religious Traditions edited by Leona Anderson and Pamela Dickey Young.

Using a critical feminist lens, this text explores the roles and interactions of women within major world faiths. For each tradition, the text examines the history and status of women, family structures, sexuality, and social change, as well as texts, rituals and interpretations by and for women.
