Here are thirty-eight key texts, representing the voices of women in Africa, Asia, and Latin America as well as those working among minorities in places such as Israel, the USA, and the Pacific." "The readings are grouped under five headings: Doing Theology from Third World Women's Perspective, Women's Oppression and Cries of Pain, The Bible as a Source of Empowerment for Women, Challenging Traditional Theological Thinking, and A Newly Emerging Spirituality." "All texts are placed in context by brief introductory comments, while the main introduction to the whole book provides a helpful overview of the major issues and developments in Christian-feminist thinking throughout the Third World and beyond." "Among the contributors are: Chung Hyun Kyung (Korea); Ivone Gebara (Brazil); Kwok Pui-lan (Hong Kong); Mercy Amba Oduyoye (Ghana); Delores S. Williams (USA)."--Jacket
