This book details the history of Finnish shipbuilding, concentrating on the post-World War II era and the ship types that continue to be built in Finland today: ferries, cruise ships and icebreakers. As the title suggests, emphasis is on various innovative solutions devised by Finnish shipbuilders. Also discussed in detail is the importance of the Soviet Union in the development of Finnish shipbuilding, and the difficulties faced by Finnish shipbuilders after the fall of the Union.
