Focus of the book: This book is focusing on the subject of woman and war in the recent history of the Muslim nations. The aim of the book is to look at how women's images in both textual along with visual forms (in variety of medium such as posters, banners, stamps, murals, sculptures, video clipping, flyers, and etc.) have been used to promote the war for political and /or religious causes. At this point the scope of the project is limited to just a general theme, but it will be refined and elaborated later.
