A sequel to The Democratic Intellect: Scotland and Her Universities in the Nineteent Century, this book considers the paradoxical fact that at the end of World War I, the long continued and deliberate movement away from a university education of a generalist type, peculiar to Scotland, and towards a more specialising system, similar to that in other countries, was suddenly put into reverse. Instead of doing away with the inherited order, so as to put the practical on a level with the theoretical, why did the Scots go out of their way to re-establish the primacy of the intellect?
