Women in Islamic Biographical Collections: From Ibn Sa'd to Who's Who is a reprint of Professor Ruth Roded's groundbreaking 1994 study in which she surveys 40 bibliographical collections, dating from the 9th century to the present, investigating which type of Muslim woman scholars were deemed worthy of recording for posterity. The analysis clearly indicates that Muslim women have achieved prominence in certain fields at certain times. Roded has written a substantial preface to the reprint, providing an overview of how the field has developed since the original publication.
