The History of Scotland

An ideal volume for anyone wanting a brisk overview of North Britain from the year dot to the twentieth century. The level of depth and detail was quite impressive and made for a slow enjoyable read. Of particular interest to me was the concrete and emotional description of the military affairs, which made for quite exciting reading indeed.

Through a selection of concrete scenes taken from Einstein's life, the author offers a view into the formation of his theories, as well as reminders of the day-to-day applications of his ideas.
