Robert Nadeau

Robert Nadeau is a Professor Emeritus at George Mason University. He has attempted throughout his career to bridge the knowledge gap between what British physicist and novelist C. P. Snow termed the two-cultures of humanists-social scientists and scientists-engineers. Nadeau created and directed four academic departments and programs that specialize in interdisciplinary studies and has published ten books that deal with a wide variety of subject fields on both sides of the two-culture divide. His most recently published books, The Wealth of Nature (2003), The Environmental Endgame (2006), and Rebirth of the Sacred (2013), make the case that the theory used by virtually all mainstream economists, neoclassical economics is predicated on unscientific assumptions about the dynamics of market systems that effectively preclude the prospect of implementing scientifically viable economic solutions for environmental problems.
