Watch the recording of our on-line launch event!

We had a great online launch event on 10th December. Francesca, Ian and Hillary talked about the book and some of the background to how and why we wrote it. There were lots of great questions from the audience and lots of people gave us really positive feedback afterwards – mostly that watching the webinar inspired them to read the book!

Join authors Ian Godden, Hillary Sillitto and Dorothy Godden as they introduce their latest book Scotland 2070 – Healthy, Wealthy, and Wise. The three discussed the book, its core message and their ambitious vision for Scotland (without the politics).

Exploring everything from the melting Arctic ice and the new marine frontiers, to reforestation strategies, renewable energies, and healthcare investment, Scotland 2070 puts forward a positive vision for the future of Scotland. The book is an essential read for anyone eager to approach what’s to come with enthusiasm and optimism. 

The three authors reveal why they chose to create their ambitious 50-year vision, and the key themes that form the basis of such a vision: looking North rather than South, stewarding Scotland’s wet desert and its substantial marine assets, and returning the country to its status as one of the most innovative nations in the world. Watch a brief presentation of the book and a short reading, followed by an interview with the authors – an opportunity to uncover the significant and intriguing opportunities that lie ahead, and explore the different ways in which we all can get there.
