Female genital mutilation (FGM) is the partial or complete removal of the external female genitals for cultural rather than medical or religious reasons. This book takes an indepth look at the controversial cultural practice, which is also carried out illegally in the Western world where ethnic minorities live.

This book covers this controversial cultural practice that is taking place around the world including in Western countries where it is illegal. Read the harrowing stories of women who have been genitally mutilated, their accounts of survival and their determination to end this injustice. Find out what is being done to combat this crime against women from those committed to see change.

Since January 2014 Hilary Burrage has been working in support of TheGuardian newspaper's campaign to eradicate female genital mutilation. The campaign asks how FGM can be stopped across the globe within a generation, and what we can all do to make this happen. Previously a college senior lecturer, Hilary now works as a consultant, researcher, writer and speaker.
