Book Description
This book is a critique of the practice of usury, or lending money at exorbitant rates of interest, from a Christian perspective. The author, H. Shields Rose, argues that usury is morally reprehensible and contrary to the teachings of the Bible. He also examines the historical and economic factors that led to the rise of usury in Europe and America. This thought-provoking work will appeal to anyone interested in the intersection of religion and economics.
