46 Years
"It's been forty-six years since I left Vietnam."
--Mark W. Olver, 2014
Framed as a novel, 46 Years introduces Mark W. Olver, one smart, funny, young man and how he endured during the harrowing years of 1966-1969 while a foot soldier in the Vietnam War. As a member of Delta Company, First Battalion, 26th Infantry, First Infantry Division, nineteen-year-old Mark--from rural Pennsylvania--provides the bulk of the novel through descriptive, sometimes humorous, but often shocking letters written to his mom after being drafted. A fact-based narrative created from interviews with an older Mark and his mom, frames the letters, providing a rich, candid experience of one young soldier. During his time in country, Mark finds himself in a culture foreign to him and unknowingly begins a steady stream of information-filled letters so moving that his mom is carried along with him each step of the way, a trail of his long journey, of living in dugout holes, of cutting trails through the jungle mire, and the relentless monotony of military life. Often simply a note, this steadfast retelling of the day's or week's events serve as that tether or bond to the real world of family and friends for Mark, a documented story of how our young infantrymen must have endured. Mark writes home more letters than anyone he knows, that is, until the unthinkable occurs on April 23, 1968, when an enemy mortar attack changes his life once again, this time forever. All this time, Mark has no idea that while away his mom saves every letter, every scrap. Now a Purple Heart recipient and disabled veteran, Mark looks back at the letters and speaks out about the effects on one human life--his own. From long ago and far away, this story reaches out to today's readers through the innocent letters of an American boy forty-six years ago.
Based on the third International Conference on Symmetries, Differential Equations and Applications (SDEA-III), this proceedings volume highlights recent important advances and trends in the applications of Lie groups, including a broad area of topics in interdisciplinary studies, ranging from mathematical physics to financial mathematics. The selected and peer-reviewed contributions gathered here cover Lie theory and symmetry methods in differential equations, Lie algebras and Lie pseudogroups, super-symmetry and super-integrability, representation theory of Lie algebras, classification problems, conservation laws, and geometrical methods.
The SDEA III, held in honour of the Centenary of Noether’s Theorem, proven by the prominent German mathematician Emmy Noether, at Istanbul Technical University in August 2017 provided a productive forum for academic researchers, both junior and senior, and students to discuss and share the latest developments in the theory and applications of Lie symmetry groups.This work has an interdisciplinary appeal and will be a valuable read for researchers in mathematics, mechanics, physics, engineering, medicine and finance.

How to Steal a City is an insider account of this intervention, which lays bare how the administration was entirely captured and bled dry by a criminal syndicate, how factional politics within the ruling party abetted that corruption, and how a comprehensive clean-up was eventually conducted.
It is written as a gripping real-life thriller, taking the reader deeper and deeper into the rotten heart of the city. As a former senior government official and local government "fixer," Crispian Olver was no stranger to dealing with dodgy politicians and broken organisations. Yet what he found was graft that went far beyond the dodgy contracts, blatant conflicts of interest and garden-variety kickbacks he had seen before. It had evolved into a web far more sophisticated and deep rooted than he had ever imagined, involving mazes of shell companies, assassinations, criminal syndicates, and compromised local politicians. The metro was effectively controlled by a criminal network, closely allied to a dominant local ANC faction. What he found was complete state capture--a microcosm of what has been happening in South Africa's national government.
But there was a personal price to pay. Intense political pressure and threats to his personal safety took a toll on his mental and physical health. He had to have a full-time bodyguard, and never maintained a regular routine. He eventually lost much of his political cover. Olver ultimately had to flee the city as the forces stacked against him started to wreak their revenge.
