Book SynopsisIn The Oxford Handbook of Gender and Conflict, Fionnuala Ní Aoláin, Naomi Cahn, Dina Francesca Haynes, and Nahla Valji focus on the multidimensionality of gender in conflict, yet they also prioritize the experience of women given both the changing nature of war and the historical de-emphasis on women's experiences.
