"Islamic banking in particular has developed common standardsand practices,and has attracted the interest of players andinvestors outside the Muslim community. Yet, its economics andimplications for financial stability are generally not wellunderstood. Islamic Banking in Indonesia makes a significantcontribution to our understanding by linking its foundations notonly to the fundamentals of Islamic banking, but also to classicalWestern banking thought. It provides a convincing analysis of thestructural weaknesses of conventional finance, and the role ofmonetary policy in causing misallocation of resources andboom-and-bust cycles."
