The relationship between science and civil society is essential to our understanding of cultural change during the Victorian era. Science was frequently packaged as an appropriate form of civic culture, inculcating virtues necessary for civic progress. In turn, civic culture was presented as an appropriate context for enabling and supporting scientific progress. Finnegan's study looks at the shifting nature of this process during the nineteenth century, using Scotland as the focus for his argument. Considerations of class, religion and gender are explored, illuminating changing social identities as public interest in science was allowed—even encouraged—beyond the environs of universities and elite metropolitan societies.

This is a history of Scotland as a society experiencing industrialization and urbanization in all its aspects and it takes the impact of these processes over their widest range from croft, bothy and hunting lodge to mines, foundries, and urban poor houses. The volumes create an awareness of the identity and distinctiveness of Scotland and recognize it as a multi-cultured society, the highland and lowland cultures being only the major ones among several.
