Edna's memoir

Would somebody please add a reference to Edna's memoir, A Woman of Firsts, which will be published shortly. I'm reading an advance copy now but I find online there are different publication dates given. https://www.harpercollins.ca/9780008305345/a-woman-of-firsts-the-midwife-who-built-a-hospital-and-changed-the-world/ Chuck @ UPDmedia.com Update: https://aerbook.com/books/A_Woman_of_Firsts-223260.html

I added a reference to her book with a link to HQ, which is part of Harper Collins. I bought it after talking to Edna last year. Egalino (talk) 12:23, 2 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Edna Adan Ismail - is she a Muslim

Give that Ismail received the Templeton Prize in 2023, it would be interesting for this article to state something about her religious views. Is she a Muslim? YTKJ (talk) 21:25, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
