George M. Brockway

Dr. Brockway brings a remarkable breadth of degrees, experience and teaching to this work. He has a bachelor's degree in Mathematics, a masters degree in Social Work and a masters and a Ph.D. in Philosophy. The subjects he has taught range from logic and philosophy to medical ethics and business ethics; from business, finance and economics to sociology and political science; and from mathematics to the history of science. And interspersed between these various teaching sojourns he has been the administrator of a primary care clinic, a stock broker and investment consultant, and the managing partner of a financial planning firm. He has lived in Europe and in the U.S.. This breadth of experience and interests is reflected both in the subject areas he writes about in this book as well as in his style of writing. The book is written for the non-specialist and in non-technical terms. When asked who his intended audience was, Dr. Brockway responded: "anyone who is interested in these topics, is intelligent and a non-specialist."
