Book excerpt: Drawing on her experiences around the world, and in the troubled but fascinating state of Yemen in particular, Donna Kennedy-Glans suggests that we have the power to reframe our own ideas about gender, while creating a new and more subtle dialogue with traditional cultures, including fundamentalist Islam. With many telling examples from her own rich personal experience, and using both traditional wisdom and some of the latest research in various fields, she advances the idea of subtle connections, respect, "breathing spaces" that would replace chauvinism and confrontation, and create dialogues from which vital new relations would emerge, both on the personal and social levels.
