SUMMARY:Sir John Monash : a personal view
DESCRIPTION:Waverley Historical Society invites you to an afternoon with Professor Bill Brown as he presents his talk… “Sir John Monash : a personal view” \nDate: Wed 24th April\, 2pm Venue : Waverley Historical Society\, 41 Miller Cres. Mt Waverley… \nWe are above the library and up the stairs\, or take the lift on the left once you have entered the library foyer. \nPlease bring some afternoon tea or a gold coin donation. \nJohn Monash was an engineer\, a lawyer\, leader of the Australian Corps in France in 1918 and founder of the SEC. Both Ted Baillieu (former Premier of Victoria) and Roland Perry (the author of “MONASH – the Outsider who Won a War”) argue that Sir John was the greatest Australian ever. Professor Bill Brown will relate some interesting facts about Sir John’s life. \nBill Brown was a student at the University of Melbourne where he graduated with an Bachelor of Engineering (Electrical Engineering) in 1960. While working on his Master of Engineering Science he was awarded a Commonwealth Scholarship to undertake a PhD at Queen’s University\, Belfast. Returning to Melbourne in 1964\, he was appointed Lecturer in the Department of Electrical Engineering at Monash University. In 1967 he became Senior Lecturer\, and then Associate Professor in 1974. Brown’s research interests were in control systems; initially the theory of computer control and then the application of computer control in the bioengineering area. Brown was heavily involved in the establishment of a number of major centres in the department as well as the negotiations related to the amalgamation with the Chisholm Institute of Technology.

SUMMARY:Unconquered - Our Wounded Warriors - Book Launch
DESCRIPTION:Unconquered: Our Wounded Warriors tells the remarkable story of a group of men and women from Australia and New Zealand who fought and conquered extraordinary challenges from the battlefield to the sporting arena. These veterans of the Army\, Navy and Air Force served their country in campaigns from Somalia to Afghanistan and the multitude of conflicts in between\, and share the common scars of their service\, both apparent and invisible. \nFor these men and women\, now confronting the trials of daily life\, the Invictus Games provided a further challenge\, a chance to test their mettle in the sporting arena representing the country for which they had fought. ‘Invictus’ is the Latin word for ‘unconquered’ or ‘undefeated’ — a perfect description of these veterans who now fight their own personal battles. Through the power of sport\, they have proven that they can overcome the mental and physical trauma\ninflicted by their service. This beautifully illustrated volume allows us to share their story of service\, sacrifice and courage\, and gain an insight into their dogged determination to triumph in the face of adversity. \nUnconquered: Our Wounded Warriors is a deeply personal and human account of the trauma of armed conflict and the suffering that continues long after the sounds of battle have died away. It highlights the power of the individual to overcome fear\, wounds both mental and physical\, and lifelong disability and inspires those of us who have never served to cope with our own challenges. These are stories of courage pure and simple and of the men and women who defied the odds to remain unconquered.
