is a unique and valuable resource held in at least one format by more than 500 institutions. It is listed on library study guides for topics ranging from Women's Studies, to Law, Education, and Health. There are serious limitations to the organization and searching in the online edition, but
the articles are generally well-written and informative, and it presents a good starting point for researchers at the beginning of their process. It will also be useful for scholars looking for an easily accessible and brief perspective on the issues faced by women in Islamic societies, with
explication of the differences between countries, regions, and regimes in historic and contemporary times.",
