Dr. Jamal Hussein Ali traveled to many countries to get the background for this book. Stories of and interviews with women from countries who have endured tragedies, from Afghanistan and Chechnya to Iran and Iraq ... Women have taken the role of the father and brother ... Vendors and drivers and peasant women, teachers, workers ... And homemakers - falling out of the traditional role out of necessity, the number of them is not few. The author highlights their situation, while putting their stories forward in a literary style, sometimes poetic, while still describing a reality and injustice, a shameful affront to humanity.
