Two of them are plays about the famous mathematician, Isaac Newton, with titles “On the Shoulders of Giants” and “Isaac and Amanda.” These were co-authored with Herbert Hauptman, the first mathematician to win the Nobel Prize. He won it in 1985 in chemistry (since there is no prize in mathematics) for his work in crystallography. Three of the author’s plays are about Masada, a place in Israel near the Dead Sea with titles Masada Revisited, Masada Revisited II and Masada Revisited III. After the war between the Romans and the Jews in 66-70 AD, the last surviving stronghold of the Jews was the mountaintop fortress at Masada. According to the historian Josephus, the Romans besieged the fortress for three years and when the Jews realized that the fortress would be taken they committed mass suicide. The author has also written two plays about countertransference in psychotherapy with titles “Countertransference,” and “Retribution.”view less
