Description

Finland: The World’s Best-kept Secret

“Richard D. Lewis brings his extensive knowledge of Finland to a wide audience, capturing the mystery and setting the context for its continued success. Finland, Cultural Lone Wolf is a book of many insights – about Finland and the world beyond.”
Matthew Kirk, British Ambassador to Finland

Finland, Cultural Lone Wolf is the story of an accomplished nation and her extraordinary people. Pusuing a “Lone Wolf” policy, Finland raised itself from a struggling, war-battered state in 1945 to one of the most developed countries in the world. The exponential rise of Nokia from tire and timbers to leading the world’s telecommunication industry is indicative of the Finns and their characteristic business style. These remarkable people speak a language unique in its origins and have kept their cultural identity intact despite the influences of powerful neighbours, Sweden and Russia.

    Categories: Books.

    Born in the depressed 1930s into a family of Lancashire miners, a piece of coal’s throw from Wigan Pier, Richard D. Lewis grew up in a rough-hewn homeland of Rugby League, with its awesomely deep collieries, its massive, gaunt cotton mills, black-faced pitmen and raw-boned pit lassies. Today he advises governments and corporations on cultural diversity, is a best-selling author, and was knighted by former President Ahtisaari of Finland. The Road from Wigan Pier, Richard D. Lewis’ autobiography, tells the story of this remarkable journey from humble beginnings to international acclaim.

    The Cultural Imperative

    £15.99
    Categories: Books.

    Will the tidal wave of globalisation lead us to a bland and uniform cultural landscape dominated by a unified cultural perspective? Will cultural imperialism triumph in the twenty-first century? Or will culture maintain its influence on the human consciousness?

    Richard D. Lewis explores these questions and explains how cultural traits are too deeply embedded to be homogenised.
