In this new book, Fintan Tallon addresses the validity of his previous thesis Getting Down to Work - Creating Jobs in Your Community, 1993] to the current Irish Tiger economy and provides a deep insight into the widening gap between rich and poor in today's Ireland. He presents a unique vision of how our national wealth can be used to benefit all of the children of the nation while simultaneously developing the nation's ability to face the challenges that undoubtedly lie in the future.His is a vision - one that can be used by urban and rural communities throughout our nation - of a new hope of restoring local economies, revitalising our ghost towns and villages, providing a greater sense of permanence to our rural communities and eliminating involuntary migration or emigration. In this, Fintan challenges all of the people of Ireland to take the shaping of their destiny into their own hands.
