Description
Challenging Limitations: The Redefinition of Roles for Women in the GCC, Alanoud Alsharekh, ed, deals with the rise of professional women in the Gulf region and their participation in the economic and social sector, a topic dealt with in the United Nations Arab Human Development Report, first launched in 2002.
In that report a particular statistic relevant to the role of women stands out. It is that the single factor with the highest correlation with per capita economic growth is that of female participation in the labour force. This correlation is one with profound significance for the Arab world, as it is the region that lags behind the rest in incorporating women into the labour force.

![The Secret Spirit of Korean Architecture, by Kim Bongryol, is the first English-language distillation of Kim Bongryol's ideas on Korean architecture, as a whole and in its various manifestations, and architecture's role in the history of Korea. From the time of its original Korean publication the book has been widely seen as a response to the growing international interest in Korean architecture, its tangible historical and contemporary forms, and a multidisciplinary contribution to the discourse that has resulted in new writing and audiovisual output exploring principal features and themes, materials, techniques and methodologies particular to the genre. This revised and updated English version of Kim Bongryol's original three-volume book was published in two editions, hard cover [9781872843827] and soft cover [9781872843834], as part of Saffron Korea Library Series [ISSN 1748-0477].](https://saffronbooks.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/9781872843834.jpg)
