Gordon Frank Newman (born 22 May 1946) is an English television producer and writer. He is known for his two series ''Law and Order'' and ''The Nation's Health'', each based on his books. Recent TV series created by Newman include ''Judge John Deed'' and ''New Street Law''. He is currently working on a follow-up to ''Law and Order'', and a series of single plays for the BBC. Newman's first book, ''Sir, You Bastard'' was a bestseller on publication in 1970. It was to become the first in a series of 3 works featuring the character of Terry Sneed, an unscrupulous Scotland Yard inspector. The second of these is ''You Nice Bastard'' and the third ''You Flash Bastard/ The Price''. Other books he has written include ''Billy'', ''The List'', ''The Men with the Guns'', ''Charlie and Joanna'', ''Three Professional Ladies'', ''Trading the Future'', ''Circle of Poison'', ''Law and Order'', ''The Nation's Health'', and his 2009 novel ''Crime and Punishment''. Together with screenwriter and novelist Matthew Hall he owns and runs the production company One Eyed Dog Ltd. ==Writings in relation to personal views== Newman has very strong and sometimes controversial views on a variety of subjects, and these are reflected in his choice of subjects for writing.〔 He has little faith in conventional medicine, believing that alternative therapy is far more effective. He claims that doctors are not interested in prevention, and are too close to the interests of the major pharmaceutical companies in just releasing ever more powerful drugs. He does acknowledge the benefits of nursing though, and in ''The Nation's Health'', a newly qualified doctor goes to work at an NHS hospital- with her training taking her through the hospital's various departments, her idealistic aspirations come under threat. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「G.
