For de som vil se og høre Kirsen og Lars sine forelesninger igen, så finner du videolenker til disse etter innlogging. Vi på Lillehammer vil gjerne takke for denne gang med noen bilder fra kursdagene.

Introduction
Two questions can be asked: firstly, not do we need another book on remediation, but why? And secondly, if this is the case, what kind of book should it be? This review spirals around these questions.
