About the Book: 

An examination of the impact of human society on Scotland's landscape. James McCarthy charts the relationship between the land and the people who inhabit it, giving an overview that sweeps from the geological fundamentals to a forward-looking appraisal of ecologically sensitive issues - land ownership, exploitation of resources, and conservation of Scotland's natural heritage.
