This riveting memoir is the first book written by a female Marine about the war in Iraq, and one of the only books written by a woman who has experienced combat first hand. Throughout her deployment, Jane kept a journal of her and her fellow lieutenants' combat experiences, which |

she drew on to convey the immediacy of life in the military, not just for a woman but for all Marines. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
This book contains contributions presented at the 13th International Conference on Complex Networks (CompleNet), April 19–22, 2022. CompleNet is an international conference on complex networks that brings together researchers and practitioners from diverse disciplines—from sociology, biology, physics, and computer science—who share a passion to better understand the interdependencies within and across systems. CompleNet is a venue to discuss ideas and findings about all types of networks, from biological to technological and to informational and social. It is this interdisciplinary nature of complex networks that CompleNet aims to explore and celebrate. |
