	CRM News: Strategy: Annus Mirabilis
		Isaac Newton is widely described as having his annus mirabilis in 1665-66 when he worked out the laws of gravitation and some other concepts that led directly to our understanding of classical mechanics and informed our understanding of nature for more than two hundred years.
		You know you are having an annus mirabilis when the press can't keep up with the news you generate.
		The other thing about an annus mirabilis is that it tends to destroy the old order.

		That the husband provoked or requited the wife’s infirmities of mind or temper by infidelities is a conjecture resting on an assumption; for the assertion that “Dryden was a libertine” remains unproved.
		Annus Mirabilis, though not written in the heroic couplet with which Dryden had already familiarised himself in both dramatic and non-dramatic composition, offers unmistakable proof of the ease and self-confidence which by this time he had already acquired as a writer of verse.
		Like Gondibert, Annus Mirabilis was the fruit of exile; but, while part of the former was written at the Louvre, Dryden had been driven from London, by the great plague and the great fire commemorated in his poem to take refuge at his father-in-law’s country seat at Charlton in Wiltshire.

		Over 76 years, Einstein made myriad contributions to physics and the world in general, but it was in a single year – 1905 – that he changed science and history in ways no one has before or since.
		Physicists call 1905 Einstein's "annus mirabilis," Latin for "miracle year." Only Isaac Newton, who in 1666 established the foundations for much of modern physics and math, can lay claim to a similarly profound and productive period of achievement.

		In sum, an amazing outburst: Einstein's 1905 still evokes awe.
		Historians call it the annus mirabilis, the miracle year.
		Einstein ranges from the smallest scale to the largest (for special relativity is embodied in all motion throughout the universe), through fundamental problems about the nature of energy, matter, motion, time, and space—all the while putting in 40 hours a week at the patent office.
