The thirteenth edition of the successful textbook The Economy of Ireland should be of interest to not just third-level students but a wide lay audience.

The story of the Irish economy, at the heart of the euro zone has been one of the most remarkable in the developed world in the last twenty years.

There are four major parts to the book: (i) historical, international and political contexts; (ii) state expenditure, taxation and regulation; (iii) performance in terms of employment, living standards and income distribution; and (iv) analysis of six key sectors, agri-food, trades goods and services, energy, housing, education and health.
