Trade Review
"Kitch writes beautifully and in a very engaging manner that draws the reader into the story she is telling. Jamila and Marzia come across as thoughtful and compelling women of great integrity who have devoted themselves to women's rights and national progress."--Valentine Moghadam, author of Globalization and Social Movements: Islamism, Feminism, and the Global Justice Movement

"A significant contribution to the literature on women in Afghanistan because of its innovative structure as well as its sensitive, intelligent. ethical approach to cross-cultural issues. . . . Contested Terrain: Reflections with Afghan Women Leaders not only should be on the reading list of women's studies classes, but it also should be recognized as exemplifying the best in feminist methodology."--Hypatia
