當人生被迫中斷停滯,我們該如何找到另一種生存的信念?

谁建立了第一个现代国家?谁创造了第一个文明社会?谁发明了现代民主和自由市场资本主义的理念?苏格兰。 本书讲述曾是欧洲最贫穷国家的苏格兰如何创造出现代生活的基本理念——民主、技术、资本主义,又如何在18世纪将这些理念传至世界各地。这不仅仅是关于苏格兰的历史故事,更是对现代世界的产生极其影响的有趣阐释。赫尔曼延续其一贯擅长的历史叙述,语言生动,论证充分而深刻,是对苏格兰人创造性的想象力和精神的致敬。 苏格兰在17世纪末还是欧洲最贫穷落后的国家,却在18世纪中叶奇迹般地迸发出了惊人的力量,出现了经验主义哲学家大卫·休谟,自由经济的鼻祖亚当·斯密,深刻影响欧洲浪漫主义的沃尔特·司各特,改良蒸汽机的詹姆斯·瓦特等大批近代文明史中的巨擘。他们引领的苏格兰启蒙运动“发明”了现代世界,创造了构成现代世界文明的科学技术、资本主义和现代民主。苏格兰人不仅成为大不列颠帝国的中流砥柱,更随着“大西洋时代”的脚步,将现代文明理念传扬到欧美乃至全世界,启动世界朝现代文明转向。一个弹丸之地,如何成了推动现代化进程的主导力量?本书将解开这道连大部分苏格兰人也无法回答的谜题。
