Economics, Ethics and Religion Jewish, Christian and Muslim Economic Thought [Hardcover]

There is a revival of interest by economists in ethical issues and beliefs, and by moral philosophers and theologians in economics. This book is intended to make a contribution to this cross-fertilisation of ideas. Rodney Wilson has undertaken an extensive survey of Jewish, Christian and Muslim views on economics, and reviewed the rapidly expanding business ethics literature from a religious perspective. The juxtaposition of the work of theologians and moral philosophers with that of economists results in some interesting comparisons.List of Tables and Figures - Acknowledgements - Economics and Ethics - Judaism - Christianity - Islam - Business Ethics - Index

'...this is a valuable work both for those seeking an overview of the literature on religious economics, and to scholars working in the field.' - Paul Oslington, International Journal of Social Economics
