Summary:
This perceptive, highly readable survey of 40 years of profound change in the Irish Republic traces how a once-enclosed people have become committed Europeans. They have modernized their economy and life-styles, but are they losing the old "Irish" values? This panoramic perspective takes in the changing roles of women, the fight for the Irish language and the creaking political system.
