Chapter 1: Women in the Jewish Tradition: Contemporary Trends and Future Possibilities -- Chapter 2: Women and Christianity -- Chapter 3: Legal, Hermeneutical, and Activist Considerations in Mapping the Future for Muslim Women -- Chapter 4: Hinduism for Women: Present and Future Prospects for Socio-Spiritual Emancipation -- Chapter 5: Indigenous, Non-Western "Feminisms" in Early Buddhist Literature -- Chapter 6: Preserving Tradition: Jain Women -- Chapter 7: Women in Sikhism Revisited -- Chapter 8: Women's Learning in the Confucian Tradition and Contemporary China -Learned Women, "Leftover" Women, and "The Third Sex" -- Chapter 9: Daoism and Women in Contemporary China.

This book delves into the future of the relationship between religion and the status of women. With contributions from distinguished scholars, it examines current trends in the following religions: Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, Sikhism, Confucianism, and Daoism. It envisions the implications of these developments for the future position of women. The method employed in this book is characterized by what is known as 'personalist epistemology.' The contributing authors blend their experiences as women within the diverse traditions, along with more comprehensive accounts of the role of women in these religions. By doing so, they combine the finest aspects of subjective and objective approaches to studying women in world religions. The contributors examine contemporary trends within their respective religious traditions by combining the finest aspects of subjective and objective approaches to studying women in world religions. It serves as a testament to the enduring interest in women's roles in religion and the dynamic nature of the field. The book intends to appeal to many readers, from the general public to academics. It offers valuable insights into the position of women in world religions, making it relevant to both the average person and those engaged in scholarly pursuits.
