Scotland's Choices

The Referendum and What Happens Afterwards

Beschreibung

Scotland's Choices, now fully revised for the critical last few months before the referendum, explains the choice that Scotland will have to make in September 2014. The authors clearly explain the issues and how each of the options would be put into place after the referendum, without any bias or agenda.
