Winner of the 2012 BRISMES book prize. How the written text became accessible to wider audiences in medieval Egypt and Syria. Medieval Islamic societies belonged to the most bookish cultures of their period. Using a wide variety of documentary, narrative and normative sources, Konrad Hirschler explores the growth of reading audiences in a pre-print culture.The uses of the written word grew significantly in Egypt and Syria between the 11th and the 15th centuries, and more groups within society started to participate in individual and communal reading acts. New audiences in reading sessions, school curricula, increasing numbers of endowed libraries and the appearance of popular written literature all bear witness to the profound transformation of cultural practices and their social contexts.

The latest edition of this casebook on banking and financial services regulation takes a problem-oriented approach to the subject. With its focus on the interactions and crossovers within the financial services industry, it gives students and professors an opportunity to explore the issues that are defining regulation in this area. Malloy covers supervision and regulation of the full range of the depository institutions industry -- commercial banks, savings associations, and credit unions -- as well as the intersection of this industry with securities and insurance. The book contains over 300 detailed problems and notes that are accessible yet challenging. The problems and notes have beeb repeatedly tested and refined over the course of twenty years of intensive teaching at five different schools. Malloy has included an extensive bibliography keyed to the subject matter of each chapter. The book works extremely well as a casebook for a standard course in financial services regulation and as a basic reading and resource text for an advanced seminar. A teacher's manual is available.
