Who invented our modern ideas of democracy and free market capitalism? The Scots. As historian and author Arthur Herman reveals, in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries Scotland made crucial contributions to science, philosophy, literature, education, medicine, commerce, and politics-contributions that have formed and nurtured the modern West ever since. This book is not just about Scotland: it is an exciting account of the origins of the modern world. No one who takes this incredible historical trek will ever view the Scots-or the modern West-in the same way again. 538 Mode of access: World Wide Web. 650 0 Civilization, Modern|xScottish influences. 650 0 National characteristics, Scottish. 650 0 Scots|zForeign countries. 650 0 Enlightenment|zScotland. 651 0 Scotland|xIntellectual life. 651 0 Scotland|xCivilization. 700 1 Mackenzie, Robert Ian.|4nrt 710 2 hoopla digital. 830 0 ITK audio. 856 40 |uhttps://www.hoopladigital.com/title/ 13523216?utm_source=MARC|zInstantly available on hoopla. 856 42 |zCover image|uhttps://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/ rbd_9781501931314_180.jpeg
