Since the first edition, there have been fundamental changes in the Irish growth model. The sudden collapse of the Irish economy in 2008 raises questions such as: why the sudden and deep decline in economic growth? What are the prospects for a return to growth? This book proves yet again to be the definitive work on the Celtic Tiger.
