This is a fascinating look at the role women play in Emirati society and the many ways their lives have changed since the country was formed and became fabulously wealthy from their oil revenues. Author Bristol-Rhys has taught for many years in the UAE, and has come to know many of the family members of the women that she teaches. She shares her insights about women's lives in this very readable book, and also provides suggestions for further research throughout.
