There are a large number of books that play with the short mysteries genre sometimes called mini-mysteries, where the reader is asked to solve a mystery. Consequently, without any more detailed information about the specific book you are looking for it is fairly difficult to offer an exact answer. Here are a few possible candidates: "Two-minute Mysteries" by Donald Sobal; "You're the Detective!: Twenty-Four Solve-Them-Yourself Picture Mysteries" by Lawrence Treat; "You Be The Jury" by Marvin Miller; "Almost Perfect Crimes: Mini-Mysteries For You To Solve" by Hy Conrad.
One possible option would be to try online retail book sellers (Amazon.com or Barnes&Noble.com for example) and search for the availablity of the above titles. These…

The complete list of Danish translations of Finnish novels and poems is listed on Finnish Literature Society's webpage. The database is maintained by FILI (Finnish Literature Exchange). The address is following: http://dbgw.finlit.fi/fili/kaan.php
You should just choose "Tanska" (=Danish) from the "Käännöksen kieli" (=the language of translation) menu. Then you have to click grey button "Hae" (=search) below. As a result you will have all the Danish translations of Finnish literature from year 1845 to 2006.
FILI has also new unfinished database that lists all the published translations from the year 2007. There is also English version of that new database: http://dbgw.finlit.fi/kaannokset/index.php?lang=ENG

We were unable to locate the terms in any online education dictionaries but you can apply the term skill - the power or ability to perform a task well, especially because of training or practic - to communication and language skills.
However, here are a couple of good online dictionaries:

You probably mean colour therapy, which is not a branch of classical psychotherapy. On the other hand, arts therapy is widely accepted as valid treatment among classical psychotherapists as well, but in this kind of arts therapy, separate colours hardly have special meaning or significance.
In colour therapy, the colour purple can be interpreted in several ways. Have a look e.g. at the following links:
http://www.holisticonline.com/Color/color_purple_scarlet.htm
http://www.crystalinks.com/colors.html
http://www.colourtherapyhealing.com/
The best way to find different translations for Finland and Finnish is to use Google translator:
http://translate.google.com/
Finland is in Finnish Suomi
Finnish is suomalainen
You can use these terms as the source.
I'm afraid I don't quite understand your question. What exactly do you mean by "academic resources" and "regulations"? If you mean the library collections of the Finnish university libraries and the right to use them, so basically they are open for everybody and it is also possible to request interlibrary loans from their collections, even to be sent abroad.
If you are staying in Finland, there are many libraries worth visiting. Depending on your special interests, I would recommend e.g. the following:
http://www.nationallibrary.fi/index.html
http://www.aralis.fi/en/taik.html
http://lib.tkk.fi/en/
