Gospel According to Women by Karen Armstrong
This history of women in Christianity explores how women have been forced to accept certain prescribed roles - as virgin, martyr, witch, wife and mother. It suggests women should choose which of Christianity's cultural habits of mind should be cultivated, and which should be jettisoned.Karen Armstrong was born in Worcestershire. After becoming a nun in the 1960s, she left her order and lectured in literature at London University before becoming a full time writer, broadcaster and international adviser on religious and political affairs. She has addressed US Congress, the UN and Canadian parliament on Islam and fundamentalism. Among her other books is the bestselling ‘History of God’.
