📘 Islam and Capitalism by Maxime Rodinson

This book is a rebuttal of the cultural reductionism of Max Weber and others who have tried to explain the politics and society of the Middle East by reference to some unchanging entity called "Islam," typically characterized as instinctively hostile to capitalism. The author looks at the facts, analyzing economic texts, to show that Muslims never had any problem making money.
