Gene W. Heck explores the role of Islam in precipitating Europe&acute;s twelfth century commercial
renaissance. Determining that Europe&acute;s medieval feudal interregnum was largely caused by indigenous
governmental business regulation and not by shifts in international trade patterns, he demonstrates how
Islamic economic precepts provided the ideological rationales that empowered medieval Europe to escape its
three-centuries-long experiment in "Dark Age economics" - in the process, providing the West with its
archetypic tools of capitalism.

Islamic and Western sources to establishhis findings are strinkingly impressive. He fruitfully combined the
work of many Muslim jurists, renowned medieval historians and geographers in the medieval era."Seif Tag
Eddin in: The Muslims World Book Review 4/2007 "[...] the subject matter dealt with here is one of great
historical significance [...]."Maya Shatzmiller in: Der Islam (Redaktion) Asien-Afrika-Institut 85, 2-2008
