Cambridge Studies in Historical Geography No. 33. "Scotland is viewed from the context of the relationship between geographical knowledge and national identity in this study. The author explores new perspectives on Empire, national characteristics and local geographies of science, and advances a previously unexplored area of geographical inquiry--the historical geography of geographical knowledge. The book offers a broad-ranging approach to the subject, and will be of interest to students as well as imperial historians" (Cambridge University Press Web site). "Geography, Science, and National Identity offers a sweeping chronology and reveals the richness of the history of Scottish geography. There is a wealth of material here, and Withers pushes us to think differently about geography and its importance to political, social, and intellectual history" (Isis). Contents: 1. Introduction: geography, science and historical geographies of knowledge; 2. Geography, identity and the making of the nation, 15201682; 3. Geography, credibility and national knowledge, 16821707; 4.
