Loan Sharks - The Rise and Rise of Payday Lending Paperback – 17 Oct. 2012

Such a brilliant book! Gives an insight into this industry without overpowering with complicated jargon. I particularly love the fact that it focuses on these industries operating within the UK - which is a change from other, if not most, literature which is based in the USA. It's such an easy read, I would definitely recommend it to anyone.

I highly recommend this astute, clear, perceptive examination of an issue which is becoming more and more pertinent by the day. I hope that policy makers will read this book and re-think their light touch approach to the industry. These organisations have been allowed free reign and the impact, as set out in this book, is appalling. There is something that can be done and the options laid out here must be taken seriously. We cannot ignore this problem any more.
