The Problem with Interest - Tapa blanda

"After much waiting a refreshing book on the subject of interest has finally appeared. In the din of confusing voices for and against interest, this is an enjoyably frank treatment of the subject ... I recommend it as compulsory reading for all those interested in the subject of interest and the Islamic position on money and banking." --Muslim World Book Review

"This is a well-researched, practical and comprehensive book on the flaws of the conventional fractional reserve banking system based on riba (interest)." --American Journal of Islamic Finance
