Nature interpretation in the Nordic countries
Nature interpretation in the Nordic countries is a book about communication between nature interpreters and their participants in our landscapes. It´s about first hand experiences of nature and the importance of to paying attention to what is inspiring and fascinating, especially valuable or threatened. And about possibilities to reflect over the relation between human and nature. Educators, researchers and interpreters contribute with articles about nature interpretation it theory and practice. The book is written for everyone who is interested in how interpretation can contribute to a sustainable future, nature conservation and areas in society like public health, democracy and the right for all citizens to visit and experience nature. The purpose is to inspire nature interpreters to offer more and even better experiences and learning in the Nordic nature and cultural landscapes.
Untimely Sacrifices
Untimely Sacrifices questions why individuals may give their time and energy to the collective against their own self-interest. Turning to Finland where public health officials named occupational burnout as a "new hazard" of the new economy, Daena Funahashi asks: What moves people to work to the point of pathological stress? Contrary to health experts who highlight the importance of self-management and energetic conservation, Funahashi questions the very economic premise of cognitive psychology that one could "economize" one's energy and thus save oneself. By pitting anthropological takes on sacrifice next to the clinical discourses on pressure, work, and coping, Funahashi offers ways to rethink what drives stress. Untimely Sacrifices also provides a compelling critique of state welfare and political economy, contesting the tendency to treat the gift economy as something separate from the force that makes redistributive mechanisms of state welfare work. It is a book essential to those interested in how forces unassimilable to conventional economy come to matter in issues of labor, stress, and welfare.
Nature Interpretation for Children and Young People in the Nordic Countries
This TEMA-Nord report is a result of a one-year project with all of the Nordic countries participating. The primary goal of the project has been to collect, develop and mediate a series of good examples of how nature interpretation, aimed at children and young people, can encourage children's understanding of nature, and inspire them to involve themselves with questions on humans nature and thus help contribute to sustainable development. Several issues should be considered when planning nature interpretation activities if nature interpretation aims to lead to sustainable development. These points of view are concerned especially with how nature interpreters can encourage children and young people to take ownership, to be involved with their body and mind, and to reflect and put the experience and the activities in nature into a wider context.

Spede, nimittäin
Suomi ei ole unohtanut Spede Pasasta (1930-2001), joka nauratti kansaa puolen vuosisadan ajan. Uusi elämäkerta piirtää maan tunnetuimmasta tv- ja elokuvakoomikosta, liikemiehestä ja keksijästä kuvan, joka on tarkempi kuin koskaan. Spede, nimittäin kattaa viihdemiehen koko julkisen ja yksityisen elämän ensiaskeleista viimeiseen golflyöntiin. Apuna on ainutlaatuinen lähdemateriaali, Speden isän säilyttämät kouluainevihot, pakinat, näytelmäkäsikirjoitukset ja kirjeet, jotka osoittavat, kuinka jo nuorella Spedellä oli selvät suunnitelmat raivata tiensä komiikan huipulle. Kymmenet läheiset perheenjäsenistä parhaisiin ystäviin, puolisot Pirjo Pasanen ja Riitta Väisänen ...
