First edition.Scotland, writes the author in his Foreword "is contemporary and ancient, and therein is its greatest fascination.A cigarette lit under a neon sign can be stubbed on a tumulus. That is part of the flavour of Scotland. In the country that developed steam power, wireless telegraphy, modern surgery and radar, there is still, in outlying parts, a Stone Age technique of living, a survival of practices and superstitions which make prehistoric man walk hand in hand with the turbo-jet engineer.".

Cloth. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. First Edition. Hardback. First Edition. A Small Country. The eighteenth century was a marvellous time of blossing in so many fields of human endeavour, but nowhere was it more impressive than Scotland in the Golden Age. But while a great deal has been written about David Hume, Adam Smith, and Robert Burns, there has been a sad lack of a comprehensive account of the totality of accomplishment in Scotland during this period. The author fills the gap. Philosophers and engineers, poets and astronomers, arhcitects and mathematicians, road-makers and ship-builders, historians and physicists, chemists and geologists, agriculturists and doctors of medicine - all are paraded before us, and enable us to share in this wonderful explosion of knowledge and widening of intellectual frontiers. At the beginning of our period Scotland was bitterly poor, swept bare by a century of religious and political fighting. At the end of our period we stand on the threshold of the modern world. Illustrated. 224 pp. Plastic protective covering. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
