'I have taught the history of the late Ottoman Empire and the Middle East in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries for many years, and have been frustrated by the fact that there is still no suitable book that discusses the political economy of the region - Necla Geyikdagi's book fills a huge gap. It will serve admirably for both use in a variety of courses as well as for any intelligent reader who wants to understand the political economy of the late Ottoman Empire, or indeed of the developing world.' - Feroz Ahmad, Professor Emeritus of History, University of Massachusetts, currently affiliated to Yeditepe University; 'Dr. Necla Geyikdagi's Foreign Investment in the Ottoman Empire is a great achievement. It encompasses cutting edge original work of interest to a variety of disciplines such as history, political science, international relations, international finance, economics and business. This book is the first of its kind to give a detailed breakdown of foreign investments in terms of investing countries and industries - The economic structure of the Ottoman economy is clearly and solidly explained. The factors attracting foreign investment and their target industries have been analyzed in detail. The part on political risk is definitely a 'must read' for anyone interested in the field. I would strongly recommend this book to my peers and to my students who seek to get a good and lasting knowledge about the evolution of the field.' - Professor Sirousse Tabriztchi, Chairman of Department of Finance, Risk Management and Business Economics, State University of New York
