Want a good read about Scottish influence in the world? You can browse thru several pages of How the Scots Invented the Modern Worldat this link to Amazon.com. At the top of the image of the book, click on the words "Look Inside" to get a pretty good look at the contents. And the $18 price tag isn't bad for a hardbound book, $9.95, paperback.
Caution: The US Scots Ring pages have advertising banners and pop-under ads. Due to the invasive nature of many of the ads who sponsor the Ring, I have removed all but this one link which will list the sites if you care to pursue them.
