520 $a"I write this book as a Saudi woman with a Muslim identity and a citizen of the world. I represent women with a mission to promote the empowerment of the Saudi female and advocate the global Muslim woman in tune with the world. Our aspirations are many, and the challenges that we face are more. We have achieved a lot despite the frustrations over the reluctance to change and modernize by a large portion of our society. Consequently, the obstacles that stand in our way are detrimental to the progress of our country. However, there are enough educated and professional women who continue to fight against discrimination and welcome international initiatives available to help women develop their potentials and prosper within the global village' -- from Foreword.
