A collection that gives a multi-faceted view of Scotland, the Scots and the Scottish short story, with stories ranging from Roman Britain through the trials of those at home during the Second World War to a country and people determined to assert their independence.
Indigenous peoples have passed down vital knowledge for generations from which local plants help cure common ailments, to which parts of the land are unsuitable for buildings because of earthquakes. Here, Hendry examines science through these indigenous roots, problematizing the idea that Western science is the only type that deserves that name.
This book focuses on the renewal (or rekindling) of cultural identity, especially in populations previously considered 'extinct'. By drawing a fine and textured picture of these cultures, Hendry illuminates extraordinary diversity that was, at one point, seriously endangered, and explains why it should matter in today's world.
