Roving over the entire sweep of history, and drawing on the best of modern science, Shermer attempts a grand synthesis of research from psychology and the neurosciences to demonstrate that markets are moral and that free trade meshes well with human nature. Shermer entertains as well as informs, and in the process he deepens the argument for economic, political and social freedom."-Dinesh D'Souza, author ofWhat's So Great About America "Economists who understand Charles Darwin are almost as rare as biologists who understand Adam Smith.

We don't hear a lot about Scotland but much happened in the 20th century to bring it into the world's mainstream. This is a great book to learn how.
