St. Maximos' Hut

Religious economics
Our discussion of whether there is a difference between "Christian economics" and regular economics reminded me of Timur Kuran's Islam and Mammon: The Economic Predicaments of Islamism.

There is something called "Islamic economics" and Prof. Kuran does a good job of dissecting and explaining it. The book, a collection of previously published essays, is a tad repetitive at times because each essay does some of the same background work, but very well written and clear.
