Norway
This well-established cruising guide covers the coast of Norway northwards from the Swedish border in the Skagerrak around the North Cape to the Russian border. It includes coverage of the Lofoten and Vesterålen islands, the Arctic archipelago of Svalbard and the remote volcanic island of Jan Mayen.

The Battle for Norway
This is the second book in a series of two, covering the events at sea during the German invasion of Norway in 1940, the first modern campaign in which sea, air and ground forces interacted decisively.

Time in Our Times
What is happening to perceptions of time, durability, and reality in the twenty-first century – and how do we deal with it? This anthology explores a diversity of uncommon insights about time, as seen from our historical and geographical standpoint. All contributions discuss how time can be seen, and how these views relate to changes in nature, technology, economy, working life, politics, religion, or philosophy specific to our own time. Findings are discussed within three themed sections; In Search of a Deeper Theory of Time, Time as Social Expectancy, and Time as Lived Experience. Contributions in this volume span from classical theory on branching time to personal experiences of drug-addicts’ time. Together, these diverse contributions shed new light on how construction, perception and regulation of time influences a person’s whole being in the world, collectively and individually, in the short and very long run, from the beginning of the Anthropocene to future cybertime.

In Cod We Trust
"Dregni's Scandinavian roots do little to prepare him and his family for the year in Trondheim eating herring cakes, obeying the conformist Janteloven (Jante's law), and enduring the morketid (dark time). In Cod We Trust is one Minnesota family's spirited excursion into Scandinavian life. The land of the midnight sun is far stranger than they previously imagined, and their encounters show how much we can learn from its unique and surprising culture."--BOOK JACKET.
Transformative Learning
This book contains a series of autoethnographies written by participants of a program on qualitative methods. It offers the stories of students-turned-professors and what they learned via autoethnographic writing as part of the course. The chapters provide insight into the application of a range of qualitative research techniques and, unlike typical works on qualitative methods, in a nonprescriptive method that reflects a personal learning process. This book will be of interest to students and academics engaged in qualitative research, as well as scholars of transformative learning, teaching pedagogy and broader educational studies.
