The legal treatment of sexual behavior is a subject that receives little scholarly attention in the field of Middle East women's studies. Elyse Semerdjian's ""Off the Straight Path"" takes a bold step toward filling that gap, offering a fascinating look at the historical progression of Islamic law's treatment of illicit sex.
