Nordic Speculative Fiction
This volume brings together scholarly theories and practices on speculative fiction from the Nordic countries, including Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden, that are all rooted in similar values, culture, and history yet are independent and unique societies. The book exhibits both the convergences and the diversity of the Nordics in fiction and fandom as well as in research. It traces the roots of Nordic speculative fiction, how it has developed over time, and how the changes in Nordic environments and societies caused by overhanging shared global issues – such as climate change, mass migration, and technological acceleration – find space in speculative practices. The first of...
AI in eHealth
The emergence of digital platforms and the new application economy are transforming healthcare and creating new opportunities and risks for all stakeholders in the medical ecosystem. Many of these developments rely heavily on data and AI algorithms to prevent, diagnose, treat, and monitor diseases and other health conditions. A broad range of medical, ethical and legal knowledge is now required to navigate this highly complex and fast-changing space. This collection brings together scholars from medicine and law, but also ethics, management, philosophy, and computer science, to examine current and future technological, policy and regulatory issues. In particular, the book addresses the challenge of integrating data protection and privacy concerns into the design of emerging healthcare products and services. With a number of comparative case studies, the book offers a high-level, global, and interdisciplinary perspective on the normative and policy dilemmas raised by the proliferation of information technologies in a healthcare context.

Design, Empathy, Interpretation shows how the group has created connections all across the globe, and how a seemingly soft a...
Neue Nordische Novellen VII
Die siebte Ausgabe der Neuen Nordischen Novellen präsentiert in deutscher Erstübersetzung Kurzprosa und Lyrik junger preisgekrönter Newcomer*innen aus dem Ostseeraum. Die Geschichten und Gedichte aus Finnland, Schweden, Norwegen, Dänemark, Island, Estland, Lettland, Polen, Tschechien, Russland und der Ukraine machen die abstrakte Größe Zeit für Leser*innen auf ihre eigene Weise greifbar. Während einige Figuren voller Elan in vergangene Jahre und Jahrzehnte zurückreisen, kann die Zeit bei anderen nicht alle Wunden heilen. Auf einer Zeitreise durch die verschiedenen Lebensabschnitte der Charaktere machen die Erzählungen immer wieder deutlich, wie Vergangenheit, Gegenwart und Zukunft ineinander verwoben sind und sich gegenseitig bedingen.

The Cryptographer
'People like to think that money and love are opposites. Anna Moore, tax inspector A2 Grade, has come to be less sure ...' John Law is Anna's latest client, and her most formidable challenge. The 'Cryptographer', people call him. He is mysterious and charming, the world's first quadrillionaire, the inventor of an unbreakable code, the creator of the world's first great electric currency. In the new millenium, it is no longer quite acceptable to admire the rich. But Law is both distrusted and admired more than most, more than Anna understands. That will have to change. Rule number one: information is the inspector's greatest weapon. And Anna needs to know - what is it that a man like John Law would seek to hide, and why?
