The British Fisheries Society, founded in 1786, was a semi-charitable joint stock company, similar to other improvement trusts of the period established to fund the construction of roads, bridges, canals and hospitals. The Society was however unique in the breadth of its ambition to create a chain of complete settlements or villages the length of the northern Scottish coastline from Dornoch on the east to Oban on the west. These new settlements were intended to be fishing stations focussed on the perceived wealth to be gained from the herring fishery. Four settlements were established at Ullapool, Wester Ross, Tobermory, Mull, Lochbay, Skye and Pulteneytown, Wick, Caithness and the specific intention of this thesis has been to examine those four built environments created by the Society. This includes all elements of the building and design process necessary to 'create' a fishing village incorporating town planning, civil engineering, industrial and vernacular buildings as well as 'architecture' by Robert Mylne and Telford. The construction of each village is followed from the design of the street plan, contracting for works through to the design and construction of diverse works such as inns, storehouses, harbours and bridges. Varying circumstance resulting in each settlement developing its own architectural character despite the Society's standardised plans and policies the settlements are also considered within the wider context of planned villages, New Towns ports, and harbours with specific analysis of individual buildings and types such as Robert Mylne's inn at Tobermory.

Em outras palavras, a pergunta “por que ensinar matemática?”, parece um questionamento desnecessário tendo em vista a intensa matemática presente em nossa vida e a naturalidade com que lidamos com ela, seja para utilizá-la ou para assumirmos nossa aversão à mesma. Contudo, quando me permiti fazer esse questionamento a falta da resposta foi um tamanho incômodo que hoje está menor, pois ainda não encontrei a minha resposta, mas, em compensação, conheci a de outros. E são essas respostas que ofereço nesse trabalho, apresentando os diversos entendimentos a respeito do ensino de matemática, concepções de mundo, a relação existente entre a matemática e as mudanças ocorridas na sociedade, questionamentos para o ensino atual e, por fim, como estas diversas visões do ensino de matemática se relacionam, contrapondo-se e/ou completando-se / The present work shows the story’s unfolded for search of an answer to a question unusual, even the teach of mathematics being a common practical at schools. In other words, the question: Why teach mathematics?” seems an unnecessary question considering the mathematics intense present in our life and the naturally that deal with itself, as to use as to run away it. However, when I let myself to do this question, the lack of answer was a great inconvenience that actually is smaller, because I’m not found the answer yet, but I knew the other people’s replies who are showed in this work, pointing the understand different about teach of mathematics, conceptions of the world, the relationship between math and society’s change, questions for the current teaching and finally how this several sights to have a relationship with each other
