Uusi, tyylikäs kuvateos Suomen ykkösmaakunnasta, Varsinais-Suomesta. Teos esittelee upein valokuvin ja oivaltavin tekstein Lounaisen Suomen vehreän ja merellisen alueen, jonka historia ulottuu satojen vuosien taa ja jonka nykypäivää ovat huippumoderni tutkimus ja tuotekehittely esimerkiksi biotieteissä, elintarvikealalla ja metalliteollisuudessa.

Southwest Finland is one of Europe's fertile maritime regions. Half of the region's area is saltwater, and a large part of the food eaten by Finns has traditionally been grown in its rich soil. Today Southwest Finland is also known for its developed metal industry, biological research, product development and new innovations in the food industry. The region has long and cherished traditions in culture, education and the arts. Natural beauty and abundant historical sites have made Southwest Finland popular among tourists. Photographer Toni Koskinen and writer media handyman Markku Heikkilä offer glimpses of life in their home region in broad strokes.
