Bøker av David McCrone

With interdisciplinary coverage of a wide range of core topics - including social inequality, national identity, religion, sport and education - accompanied by comprehensive pedagogical features to encourage engagement, McCrone's introduction provides students with an exciting new textbook on Scottish society

In recent years nationalism has emerged as a dominant issue of our time. This is a balanced account of the key points of a subject which is too often obscured by polemic.

Substantially revised and rewritten in the light of the 1997 General Election and Devolution referendum, the 2nd edition of this widely-used text provides an up-to-date assessment of Scottish politics under Blair and the likely impact of the new Scottish Parliament.

For anyone wishing to understand Scottish society in particular or the general issues involved in nation building, McCrone's clear-headed coherently argued account of the main issues will be essential reading.
