Product Description
Why should Scotland, a small country of five million inhabitants, a long and turbulent history and a wild and rugged landscape, nurture so many men and women whose ideas, actions and descendants shaped the world? This text sets out to describe the achievements of some of the great citizens that this small corner of the world produced - from major advances in medical science to the invention of everyday objects.
