Jean Sasson focuses on how, despite recent reforms, such as women being afforded the right to drive unaccompanied, Saudi women still suffer horrific physical and psychological abuse. With the guardianship laws still very much in evidence, women are controlled and are often treated like chattels by men. They have virtually no protection from the archaic laws of the land and access to education is also denied to the majority of women. Any thoughts of leading an independent life is little more than a pipe dream for most.
