Review:
Izzud-Din Pal is to be commended for making a series of rich and important issues and writings (many in Urdu) accessible to a wide audience. His book should be on the shelf of anyone wishing a clear, concise contrast of Islamic economics with that of the Neo-Classicals. In addition, as an informative and critical assessment of the endeavors made to Islamize the system, the book will be a welcome addition to the body of literature available on the economy of Pakistan (International Journal of Middle East Studies)
Excellent study ... Although he [Pal] is clearly sympathetic to the modernists, he still does a masterly, objective job of drawing out their differences with the traditionalists ... both controversial and insightful (International Journal of Middle East Studies)
