'Like the economy it describes, the book has gone from strength to strength. Prof. O'Hagan must be congratulated on his editorial control...Any economist, or inquisitive lay person, wishing to understand the current economic situation in Ireland should begin with this book.' David Johnson, Journal of Economic Literature 'An economics book that reaches its seventh edition over a period of twenty years is clearly a success in having established a core readership market. In the case of O'Hagan's book, it is easy to see why.' Douglas Hamilton, Economic Journal.
