The Story of Fred Harrison

In this biographical episode, Jonathan Brown interviews bestselling author Fred Harrison about his life and work, leading up to his forthcoming book, Cheating. This conversation traced back how Fred Harrison recounts a rootless childhood across Cyprus, Germany, England, and Singapore that shaped his global perspective and drive to understand what unites humanity. He then explains how studying Henry George’s economics led him to leave Fleet Street, develop the 18-year property cycle thesis, forecast major recessions, critique rent-seeking, and reflect on failures to reform systems in Britain and Russia, culminating in a broader cultural and psychological argument for systemic change.   Get your copy of Fred’s new book: https://shepheardwalwyn.com/product/cheating-the-human-project-and-its-betrayal/
