Despite a plenitude of books, which covers the secular and Islamic economic thoughts, the distinctive nature of An Islamic Paradigm in Economics Vision and Mission is that it discusses all spheres of economic activity, beginning with man, the society, the organisation and the entire economy as a whole. This book emphasizes not only thoughts and theoretical concepts, but also discusses their application in the real world. Hence, it suggests that a holistic approach to economic development, which harmonises between material and spiritual wellbeing is not entirely idealistic but is, in fact, pragmatic and applicable.
