It addresses the problems of the unity of knowledge in learning systems, thereby invoking the foundations of Islamic epistemology. The author presents a phenomenological model of unity of knowledge in economics, ethics, science and society. Some critical areas where this model can be applied are also explored. As a foundational study on Islamic theory of knowledge covering the fields of Islamic economics, finance, science and society, the book will be valuable to researchers, practitioners and global academic institutions." 606 $aEconomics$xReligious aspects$xIslam 606 $aIslam and science 606 $aKnowledge, Theory of (Islam) 615 0$aEconomics$xReligious aspects$xIslam. 615 0$aIslam and science. 615 0$aKnowledge, Theory of (Islam) 676 $a297.2/7 700 $aChoudhury$b Masudul Alam$f1948-$0120437 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784747403321 996 $aThe universal paradigm and the Islamic world-system$93845298 997 $aUNINA
