Muslim contribution to economics
Abstract
After discussing the Gracco-Roman economics, Joseph Schumpeter in his Magnum Opus, History of Economic Analysis, states that: "So far as our subject is concerned we may safely leap over 500 years to the epoch of St. Thomas Aquinas (1225-74) whose Summa Theologica is in the history of thought what the south-western spire of the Cathedral of Chartres is in the history of architecture."
