  Writers were invited to contribute creative stories in which Scotland is re-imagined through seven world-class wonders with the aim of encouraging people to think about their country in new ways. The Wonders include the transformation of Glasgow into the most agriculturally productive garden in the world, a radical approach to sectarianism, a futuristic look at education, the first underwater town in Loch Lomond, a playful imagining of 'The Burrae' which unites all of Scotland's subterranean wonders from the Secret Bunker to Glasgow's Underground, the reversal of global warming through a Salt Tower in Cape Wrath, and a look at the pleasure principle through a massive Disneyland-style resort in Rannoch Moor.
