Vying for Hubert's attention is Princess Al Tarouk (Aure Atika), the niece of Egypt's recently deposed king. She's also on [Jack]'s case, seeking the ship filled with weaponry that he was looking for when he died. With Russia, France and Egyptian nationalists all racing for the missing cache, danger and deception abound. Through all this intrigue bumbles Hubert, surviving more through charm and incredible luck than by any savviness or deductive skill.

The decades from the mid-1970s to the mid-1990s witnessed this change in women's movements around the globe and in articulations of the feminist agenda, as Peggy Antrobus writes, "from one that has traditionally defined women's issues in terms of domestic violence and reproductive rights to one that sees every issue from the perspective of women and which has taken on broader issues, from militaris...
