Scientific Societies in Victorian Scotland

Talk by Dr Diarmid Finnegan via Zoom video link

Organised by Inverness Field Club.  Venue: Leonardo Hotel, Millburn Road, Inverness. Plenty of free parking

This talk places the foundation of The Inverness Scientific Society and Field Club in November 1875 in its national context, as similar societies were established throughout the country, often following a very similar path to what happened in Inverness. As we celebrate our Sesquicentenary (150^th Anniversary) we look forward to understanding how these early experiments in citizen science contributed to Victorian understanding of the natural world.
