Benjamin Franklin conceived of it. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle endorsed it. Winston Churchill campaigned for it. Kaiser Wilhelm first employed it. Woodrow Wilson & Franklin Roosevelt went to war with it. Every spring, the clocks go forward, & every autumn they go back. ” Saving the Daylight” explores for the first time the contentious, & often entertaining, story of this deceptively simple attempt to regulate the sunlight hours. Throughout its surprisingly controversial history, DST has been claimed to impact a wide variety of diverse & often unexpected areas, including agricultural practices, the reporting of sports scores, street crime, voter turnout & many other, sometime unexpected aspects of daily life. The book brings together the historical, political, & technical aspects of the fascinating story behind the movement for DST, with many lighter & offbeat anecdotes. ...

The 1:50 000 topographic map gives a more general picture of the ground features than a basic map. It shows settlements, houses, roads, cultivated areas, waterways, cutting areas, mires, rock exposures, & relief. One map sheet covers an area of 30 x 40 km & one centimetre corresponds to 500 metres on the ground. The 1:50, 000 topographic map is also an ideal complement to nautical charts as it provides useful information about the land areas adjacent to waterways. For example, all Finnish sea areas are covered by 1:50 000 topographic map sheets. ...
