"With this masterful . . . translation of The Principles of Sufism, Homerin makes available to the English-reading public the most important work of Al-Ba'uniyyah, a 16th-century scholar and mystic who lived in Damascus for most of her life. . . . . Homerin's elegant and readable translation is made especially valuable by the side-by-side presentation of the Arabic and English texts. He offers a brief overview of Al-Ba'uniyyah's life and work, positioning her as one of the greatest women scholars in Muslim history."– "Choice"
