An obstetrician, wife, mother, and devout Muslim, Sadik has been a courageous and tireless advocate for women, insisting on discussing the difficult issues that impact their lives: education, contraception, abortion, as well as rape and other forms of violence. After Sadik joined the fledgling UN Population Fund in 1971, her groundbreaking strategy for providing females with education and the tools to control their own fertility has dramatically influenced the global birthrate. This book is the first to examine Sadik's contribution to history and the unconventional methods she has employed to go head-to-head with world leaders to improve millions of women's lives. Interspersed between the chapters recounting Sadik's life are vignettes of females around the globe who represent her campaign against domestic abuse, child marriage, genital mutilation, and other human rights violations. 000467457 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000467457 60010 $$aSadik, Nafis. 000467457 650_0 $$aWomen social reformers$$zPakistan$$vBiography. 000467457 650_0 $$aWomen physicians$$zPakistan$$vBiography. 000467457 650_0 $$aFamily planning$$zDeveloping countries. 000467457 650_0 $$aReproductive rights$$zDeveloping countries. 000467457 650_0 $$aWomen's health services$$zDeveloping countries. 000467457 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aMiller, Cathleen.$$tChampion of choice.$$dLincoln : University of Nebraska Press, [2013]$$z9780803211049$$w(DLC) 2012035075$$w(OCoLC)815043137 000467457 8520_ $$bacq 000467457 85280 $$bebk$$hProQuest Ebook Central 000467457 85280 $$bebk$$hProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete 000467457 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=1110056$$zOnline Access 000467457 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=1110056$$zOnline Access 000467457 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:467457$$pGLOBAL_SET 000467457 980__ $$aEBOOK$$aEBOOK 000467457 980__ $$aBIB 000467457 982__ $$aEbook 000467457 983__ $$aOnline
