Synopsis

This book delves into the inherent prejudices humans have against usury, which refers to lending money at interest. The author delves into the historical context informing this prejudice, which goes back to the seventh century CE. The book argues that regardless of the reasons for this prejudice, it has been allowed to persist without scrutiny, and it has had a detrimental effect on the development of economic thought. These negative effects are examined at length, and the author makes the case that, for society to prosper and grow in the future, this prejudice must be eradicated. This book will change the way you think about lending, economies, and our shared future.
