Islamic finance today is a trillion-dollar industry. It is fast becoming the main way in which large projects get funded globally - such as buildings, aircraft, shipping - and many financial analysts expect Islamic banking assets worldwide to double within five years. In 'Heaven's Bankers', Harris Irfan provides an authoritative yet entertaining account of how a system of finance invented in the 7th-century Middle East is fast taking over the world of modern banking.
