Doc Ngu writes about novel solutions to the world's most intractable conflicts in the series A Frog-In-The-Well Solution.Born and raised in South Vietnam during the Vietnam War, Doc Ngu experienced a post-colonial French education steeped in romanticism. After the fall of South Vietnam in 1975, he encountered the literature of socialist realism and communist class warfare. In 1980, he arrived in the United States as a refugee and discovered the liberating force of American education-an interdisciplinary landscape that encouraged intellectual freedom and creative problem-solving.He graduated with highest honors in engineering in 1984 and earned his doctorate in Computer Science in 1996-hence the "Doc" in "Doc Ngu."From the crucible of romanticism, realism, and a drive to reconcile the two, Doc Ngu crafts outside-the-box answers to boxed-in global conundrums. Some hail them as deus ex machina moments; others dismiss them as idiotic. The "Ngu" in "Doc Ngu" is an abbreviation of "Nguyễn," the most common Vietnamese surname. It also means "idiot" in Vietnamese-a deliberate choice to acknowledge and embrace expected criticism.A frog in a well knows nothing beyond its small world-but croaks all night long.
