Under de senaste åren har Sverige och världen ställts inför flera storskaliga kriser, som covid 19-pandemin, Rysslands fullskaliga invasion av Ukraina, terrordåd och andra händelser som aktualiserat vikten av en effektiv krishantering i samhället. Krishantering i praktiken ger läsaren kunskap, stöd och konkreta verktyg för att hantera krisens alla faser. Den berättar inte bara om vad man bör göra och när, utan också hur olika insatser kan genomföras. Baserad på forskningsbaserad kunskap i kombination med praktiska erfarenheter ges konkreta råd kring hur man skapar struktur, effektivitet och uthållighet i en krisorganisation.I den här upplagan har samtliga kapitel genomgått en revidering och uppdaterats med ny kunskap och praktiska exempel. Ämnet ledarskap i kriser har fördjupats och fått ett eget kapitel. Boken innehåller också ett nyskrivet kapitel om organisatoriska och personliga förberedelser inför kriser.Krishantering i praktiken vänder sig till alla som ingår eller kan komma att ingå i någon form av krisorganisation och arbeta med krishantering eller stöd till drabbade, såväl yrkesverksamma som studenter.

Dubbelstjärnan är ett program som utvecklats av den finska psykiatern Ben Furman och socialpsykologen Tapani Ahola för att främja den psykosociala arbetsmiljön. Dubbelstjärnan består av fyra teman som framkallar gemenskap och samarbete; uppskattning, framgång, skoj och omtanke, samt fyra teman som kan hota samarbete; hur man hanterar problem, kränkningar, motgångar och kritik. Varje tema beskrivs på ett enkelt sätt med ett antal beskrivande exempel från arbetslivet. I slutet av varje kapitel hittar du ett flertal fördjupningsfrågor för fortsatta diskussioner. Dubbelstjärnan kan användas som en handbok för att utveckla alla typer av arbetsgrupper och organisa-tioner. Boken är skriven på ett roligt och lättläst sätt, som alla människor kan ta till sig och ha nytta av. Boken har varit en bestseller i ett flertal länder.

This book represents an addition to the literature on brief therapy. "Solution Talk" is a term Furman and Ahola use to refer to a constructive and agreeable manner of talking with people about problems. A conversation dominated by "solution talk" rather than "problem talk" is characterized by an atmosphere of mutual respect and is likely to focus on the future rather than the past, on resources rather than shortcomings, on success and progress rather than failure, and on solutions rather than problems.

Substantial new breakthroughs are going on in telecommunications technology. The introduction of cellular radio networks and mobility is probably the most influential one in the next few years. The broadband transmission and switching technology is also maturing and will provide a cost effective platform for service provision. Interactive business and consumer services based on video and multimedia will become possible, after the broadband customer access is in the market. Common to all these developments will be the computer controlled structure of modern telecommunications, where protocols, application technology and resource management are key factors. This book contains the papers presented in the Workshop on Intelligent Networks, sponsored by IFIP Technical Committee 6 (Communication Systems). The Workshop was organized as part of the Third Summer School on Telecommunications at the Lappeenranta University of Technology, Lappeenranta, Finland on August 8 - 9, 1994. The call for papers was the first in the short history of the Summer School, yet we were able to select 20 high quality papers out of the submitted contributions.One can distinguish three main streams in the topics of the papers, reflecting the trends mentioned above: service creation and management platforms, use of software tools and methods for the IN specification, analysis and database design, and mobility and broadband aspects of future intelligent networks.

Management teams at all levels, and individual team members in particular, are often disengaged and disconnected from the management function itself. Statements such as, "we lack common goals or they are unclear", "I have no influence", "I am not listened to nor taken into account", and "I do not feel valued – actually, nobody does", are commonplace. The authors argue this is because we have been entrenched in an era of guru leadership but that it must come to an end if our management teams are to rise to the top. An individual is not capable of controlling the complicated system of an organization, with its countless variables, especially in conjunction with the rapid change in both the economy and market forces, which are unpredictable and uncontrollable. No matter how talented the individual, no one person is in a position to manage this complex system alone – not even a guru leader. The authors contend that what is needed now are resilient trendsetters who will bring about a new era of top-performing teams that together form a "collective guru", which they refer to as a Stellar Management Team. In this book, the reader undertakes a metaphorical journey to the stars, which symbolizes top-level interaction and collaboration. The journey is the development from an ordinary management team into a Stellar Management Team, which elevates its operation up to a new level of performance and success.

A very early step in microbial colonization and pathogenesis is that involving recog­ nition of the host by the microbe. In the final analysis such recognition is due to interaction between specific molecules on the two sides, without which host and microbe would ignore each other. It is therefore exciting to learn the rules that govern host-microbe interaction at to a large extent determines whether or not we are infected by the molecular level, which influenza virus, leishmanias, staphylococci and other pathogens. This book is a compendium of the addresses delivered at a symposium on molecular interaction at Porvoo, Finland in August 1991. Realizing that there are no a priori differ­ ences in receptor recognition in viruses, eukaryotic parasites and bacteria, we freely inter­ mingled these microbes at the symposium, and in this book. We found the interdisciplinary discussions and comparisons both educative and stimulating. Thus the book is divided into parts that focus on host cell receptors, on microbial recognition molecules and molecules that mediate microbial interaction with a host cell receptor and, briefly, on the molecular events that follow. Although many microbes and many cellular receptors are missing from the book -owing to the limited duration and size of the symposium -the articles presented here constitute an impressive body of examples of how initial host-microbe interaction can come about. We believe that as such the book is a useful and interesting overview of the mechanisms and principles involved in these interactions.

Martti Ahtisaari is the world's most renowned and successful mediator in international conflicts. In 2008 he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his lead role in bringing independence to Namibia, Serbia's withdrawal from Kosovo, the decommissioning of weapons in Northern Ireland and autonomy for Aceh in Indonesia. Ahtisaari's range of international contacts and global experience are remarkable and his is the name which is still most often mentioned when the world looks for an individual to try to broker a peace deal. Ahtisaari also served for six years as President of Finland, the first holder of that office to be directly elected. Upon leaving office, he founded Crisis Management Initiative, an international NGO specialising in conflict resolution and development issues. The Mediator is an authorised biography, based on extensive interviews with Ahtisaari himself as well as his family, friends and colleagues.

The textual history of the Books of Kings forms one of the most complex and debated issues in the modern text-historical scholarship. This book examines and reconstructs the textual history of 2 Kings 17 in light of the preserved textual evidence. The analysis of textual differences between the LXX, the Old Latin, and the MT allows the reconstruction of the oldest text attainable. The Old Latin version appears to have in many cases best preserved the Old Greek edition of the chapter, now lost in the Greek witnesses due to Hebraizing revisions. The Old Greek version of 2 Kings 17 evidences a Hebrew Vorlage often radically differing from the MT. In most cases the MT exhibits signs of later editing. The LXX can thus help the scholars reconstruct multiple text-historical layers previously out of our reach, as well as shed new light on certain historiographical details recounted in 2 Kings 17. As supposed by the literary critics for well over a century, the textual data shows beyond doubt that there happened vast editing and rewriting of the Books of Kings even at very late date. Text-critical considerations are therefore not only useful, but invaluable to all scholarly work on 2 Kings 17, and the Books of Kings as a whole.
