WHAT DO SIR ISAAC NEWTON, LADY THATCHER AND HIATI HAVE IN COMMON? Forbidden Fruit – Newton’s legacy in today’s economic, ecologic and ideological crises. Billions of dollars have been poured into the global banking system in a frenetic attempt at stabilization. Yet the same urgency is strangely missing in dealing with world poverty and the ecological and environmental crisis.

In a no-holds-barred analysis of our desperate historical situation, Professor Hussey, traces its origin to the ideology spawned by the physics of Sir Isaac Newton which culminated in Thatcher’s spine chilling utterance ‘…and you know, here is no such thing as society, there are individual men and women, and families’.
