E-Books →In Fact An Optimist's Guide to Ireland at 100

Ireland remained one of the most poverty-stricken nations in Europe for decades after the State was formed. Yet now, it has the second-highest standard of living in the world.
Author Mark Henry has gathered the data to tell an under-told story of our national progress across every aspect of Irish life. He identifies the factors that account for Ireland's extraordinary success, as well as the five most prominent psychological biases that prevent us from recognising how far we have come. He also highlights the greatest challenges that we must now address if we are to continue to progress in the century ahead.
While there is still more to be done, In Fact illustrates that Ireland, for all its imperfections, is in a much better state than you might think.
