Review Interest Rates and Budget Deficits: A Study of the Advanced Economies (Routledge Studies in the Modern World Economy, 1) / Routledge:Despite no conclusive evidence, there is widespread belief that the high interest rates of the 1980s and 1990s in the developed world have been caused by high budget deficits. Interest Rates and Budget Deficit systematically examines this and other questions relating to the behavior of real interest rates in eleven developed countries. The results show that generalizations across the countries can be hazardous and strongly suggests that factors specific to individual countries are still of vital importance.

Review Islamic Finance: Theory and Practice / Palgrave Macmillan:This book reviews the Islamic opposition to interest and assesses the feasibility of a non-interest financial system in the light of current economic theory. The Islamic critique of interest is set against a discussion of the methodology of Islamic economics and the opposition to interest within the Judeo-Christian tradition. The range of Islamic non-interest financial contracts is then detailed along with a review of the performance of Islamic banks to date; a model of the allocation of finance within a non-interest system is then presented. Assessment of the issues raised is made within the context of economic literature concerning debt versus equity finance; this includes an examination of banking instability and the business cycle, the determinants of levels of saving and the implications for public finance. The conclusions outline the advantages and disadvantages of a theoretical case for the prohibition of interest, and draws practical lessons for contemporary Western economies.
