Päätoimisen yliopistouran jälkeen Erkki Kaila oli Suomen suurimman seurakunnan kirkkoherra ja samanaikaisesti kansanedustaja, dosentti ja ahkera kirjoittaja. Poliitikkona hän vaikutti erityisesti uskonnonvapauslain hyväksymiseen eduskunnassa ja sen vastaanottoon kirkossa. Talvisodassa hän nosti esittämällään vetoomuksella Suomen taistelun suurpoliittiseen yhteyteen ja maailman tietoisuuteen. Jatkosodan aikana hänen vaikea tehtävänsä oli ratkoa Suomen ja Saksan aseellisen yhteistoiminnan tuomia kirkkojenvälisiä ongelmia. Teologina Kaila kulki beckiläisyydestä kulttuuriprotestantismin aatteisiin sekä mystiikan teologis-filosofiseen tulkintaan. Humanistina hän rakensi siltaa kulttuurin ja kristillisen uskon välille.

Kalevi Tuominen oli vuosikymmenten ajan keskeinen suomalainen urheiluvaikuttaja, joka teki pitkän uran Suomen olympiakomitean valmennuspäällikkönä. Hän menestyi myös itse urheilijana ja valmentajana. Koko ikänsä Kallu antoi äänensä kuulua urheilun puolesta. Se ääni kantoi kauas. Urheilun edusmiehenä Tuominen oli vertaansa vailla. Hän oli usein siellä, missä tapahtui, ja usein hän myös sai tapahtumaan. Hänen uralleen mahtuu upeita suomalaisen urheilun menestyksen hetkiä mutta myös vaikeita ja kritisoituja ratkaisuja. Suomalaista urheiluvalmennusta Tuominen kehitti kansainvälisin opein tavalla, joka loi perustan nykyaikaiselle valmennukselle.Arto Terosen ja Jouko Vuolteen kirjoittama henkilökuva piirtää kuvan suomalaisen urheiluelämän legendasta ja valmentajien valmentajasta, jolla säilyi pilke silmäkulmassa loppuun asti.Arto Teronen ja Jouko Vuolle ovat kokeneita urheilutoimittajia, joiden Kiveen hakatut -sarja on suosittu niin radiossa kuin kirjoina. He ovat kirjoittaneet myös useita henkilökuvia.
Ote esipuheesta:Osuustoimintamies, rauhanmies, vasemmistolainen ajattelija ja toimija - Sadankomitea, monet ns. yhden asian liikkeet, sosialisti, suomalainen, eurooppalainen, kansalainen kansainvälisessä maailmassa - tämä kirja kertoo hänestä, Kalevi Suomelasta, jonka jokaisesta kansalaisaktiivisesta toiminnasta ja osallistumisesta voisi tehdä oman kirjansa. Kaikki moninaisuus, monialaisuus, monet ajattelun ja tekemisen jäljet on kuitenkin mahdutettu tähän kirjaan, alustukseksi ja pohjustukseksi kenties muille odottaville kirjoille ja tietokoneen näppäimiä jo maltittomina hipelöiville kirjoittajille ja analysoijille. Tämä ei ole tieteellinen tutkimus lähdeviitteineen, ei tyhjentäväksi tarkoitettu elämäkerta, sillä tätä kirjoitettaessa Kalevi Suomelan monialainen, monia polkuja avannut, monia jälkiä jo jättänyt elämä jatkuu. Tämä on kertomus suomalaisesta, kansalaisesta, joka on halunnut avata ja avartaa suomalaisuuden rajoja kaikkiin ilmansuuntiin, osoittaa ajattelullaan ja teoillaan, että pienen pieni Suomi voi olla kokoaan suurempi tekijä kansojen perheen tavoitellessa rauhaa, hyvinvointia, keskinäistä solidaarisuutta, ihmisyyttä ja inhimillisyyttä.

In this book, Professor Holsti approaches the study of the origins of war and the foundations of peace from a new perspective. He asks three interrelated questions. Which issues generate conflict? How have attitudes towards war changed? And, what attempts have been made historically to create international orders and institutions that can manage, control or prevent international conflicts? Starting with the peace treaties of Munster and Osnabruck of 1648, Kalevi Holsti examines 177 international wars. Through these, he identifies the variety of conflict-producing issues and how they, as well as the attitudes of policy makers to the use of force, have changed over the last 350 years. He demonstrates how the new orders established by the great peace-making efforts of 1648, 1713, 1815, 1919 and 1945 attempted to solve the issues of the past, yet few successfully anticipated those of the future. Indeed, some created the basis of new conflicts.
War has traditionally been studied as a problem deriving from the relations between states. Strategic doctrines, arms control agreements, and the foundation of international organizations such as the United Nations are designed to prevent wars between states. Since 1945, however, the incidence of interstate war has actually been declining rapidly, while the incidence of internal wars has been increasing. The author argues that in order to understand this significant change in historical patterns, we should jettison many of the analytical devices derived from international relations studies and shift attention to the problems of 'weak' states, those states unable to sustain domestic legitimacy and peace. This book surveys some of the foundations of state legitimacy and demonstrates why many weak states will be the locales of war in the future. Finally, the author asks what the United Nations can do about the problems of weak and failed states.

This book provides a comprehensive review of innovative diagnostic methods for prostate cancer, with a particular emphasis on the development of PET radiopharmaceuticals. The author has had the privilege to introduce several tracers into clinical routine practice, including Na18F, 18F-FCH, 18F-FACBC, 68Ga-PSMA11, 18F-PSMA-1007, and 18F-DCFPyL. Thus, indications in various prostate cancer subgroups are discussed in detail, weighing the pros and cons in clinical practice. In the authors´ practice radiation therapy has been more important and surgical applications; therefore, PET based dose planning is presented in detail. Furthermore, the author has closely followed the development of radiopharmaceutical treatments, particularly in the context of bone pain palliation using radiopharmaceuticals, such as 89SrCl2, 186ReHEDP, 153SmEDTMP, 117mSnDTPA, and 223RaCl2, and targeted treatments (177Lu-PSMSA-617, 177Lu-PSMA-I&T and 225Ac-PSMA). Thanks to his experience, the author facilitated the set-up of targeted treatments in various countries: Baltic and Nordic countries, elsewhere in Europe, North America (Canada), and Africa (e.g. Ghana). The author's involvement in promoting therapy tourism to Finland further highlights his breadth of knowledge and practical experience. This book offers valuable insights into the evolving landscape of diagnostic methods and radiopharmaceutical treatments for prostate cancer. With the author's extensive experience and contributions to the field, readers can gain a comprehensive understanding of these advancements and their implications in clinical practice.

Die unterschiedlichen Seiten der Religiositat wurden an ein und demselben Personenkreis (Schuler und auch ihre Eltern) unter Anwendung verschiedener paralleler Methoden untersucht. Die Basisuntersuchung wurde mit der Langzeitstudie (Follow-Up-Untersuchungen) und mit einer Wiederholungsstudie erganzt."
During the last decade, many social scientists have sought to show that nature is not an eternal constant but an intrinsically unstable concept - a historical, cultural and social construct with powerful emotional, moral and political connotations. Imagining Nature sets out to explore some of the implications of and lacunae in this recent push to "denaturalise nature". But rather than asking, What is nature? as many academic writers have been doing, the contributors here ask, How is nature established as an entity? Through what processes and practices does nature achieve reality? The first section of the book, "Cosmologies", focuses on ways the practices of nature are embedded in overarching conceptual worldviews. Chapters in the second section illustrate some of the means by which identity unfolds and becomes established in interacting with and imagining nature. The chapters examine nature and identity in the national mythologies of Scandinavia and Germany; two Fulani status groups in Burkina Faso; the confrontational Sami community of Manndalen, Norway; the spatial world of the Tsaatang nomads in Mongolia; and two neoclassic houses by Le Corbusier and Wright.While the individual contributions here will certainly interest specialists in the particular fields they represent, Imagining Nature is broadly interdisciplinary in appeal, and it is especially recommended to anyone intrigued by recent constructivist debate and the multiplying conceptions of nature in the social sciences.

Mitä on suomalainen olutkulttuuri ja mikä onsen historia? Millaisia olivat oluen valmistuksen janauttimisen tavat ennen ja nyt? Entä miltä näyttävät oluen markkinointi, kauppa, valistustyö ja olutaiheiset tarinat?Suomalaisen olutkulttuurin jäljillä keskittyy tarkastelemaan olutkulttuurin kehitystä 1990-luvulta alkaen, kun yhden olutmerkin keskiolutbaarien ja tiukan kontrollin aika päättyi. Tilalle alkoivat nousta keskiluokan suosimat suuren valikoiman ravintolat sekä pienpanimot. Suhtautuminen olueen on nyt vapaampaa ja myönteisempää kuin ikinä ennen.Samalla olutkulttuuri kantaa kauas historiaan. Olut on vuosituhansia vanha perinnejuoma, ja kansanrunoutemme kertoo oluen synnystä ja huppeloitsemisesta sen voimin. Millaista olut oli, mistä saatiin vaikutteita ja kenellä oli varaa nauttia olutta? Historian lisäksi kirja antaa osviittaa maistamiseen ja valintoihin.Kalevi Leppänen on edistänyt suomalaista olutkulttuuria monessa roolissa: kouluttajana, Suomen Olutseuran toiminnanjohtajana sekä ravintoloitsijana.
