(London) Being a Muslim the author is prone to religious leanings in his writings; but during his researches in capitalism and socialism he realised that people regard economics as a purely secular subject and they are so allergic to the slightest touch of theology in economic affairs that they would not listen to anybody discussing economic issues in a non-secular fashion. Therefore the author decided to discuss all economic issues in this book in perfectly secular fashion relying solely and exclusively on rationalism and common sense throughout. The past dealing with Islamic economic ideology in also presented so as to help secular economists read and assimilate it with an open unbiased mind. HB PP: XlV+57U 1992 Rs. 800l-
