    The beginning of digital teaching of economics at the Helsinki School of Economics

    Economy - parts and whole. My first lecture series as an assistant in 1964, Economics for Correspondents, was based on Paul A. Samuelson's textbook Economics. Based on it, I then wrote my first textbook, which was published in the 1967 edition of the Economic Knowledge series, the anniversary of Finland's independence, in a 10,000-copy edition. The rights were then transferred to the company Talousteos KY, which I founded with my student Esa Ojanen in 1970. The book was sold in three levels, along with some other books, until the company was closed in the mid-1990s, with a total of 97,000 copies in 27 editions.

    The book is based on the National Accounts data, and was updated annually. National Accounts was the basis of all my teaching activities.
    Several courses are still available online.
