Review:

"Part of the longstanding tradition of solid reference works to come out of Brill's Handbook of Oriental Studies series, Inscribing South Asian Muslim Women tackles the field head-on, striving for comprehensiveness in time (coverage ranges from the thirteenth century onward, with the majority of titles falling in the twentieth century) and in format (citations include journal artricles and monographs as well as individual chapters and unpublished manuscripts)." Mary Rader in Feminist Collections, 29.3-4 (2008), p. 43
