"In the twelve years since first publication of Douglas Bennett's Encyclopaedia of Dublin, the city it described has changed beyond recognition. This new edition reflects those changes. In addition to re-writing most existing entries, he has incorporated over eighty new ones. These new entries include subjects that the author overlooked in the first edition, but most importantly that reflect the welter of change which has swept Dublin since the early 1990s." "Among the new entries are articles on the Digital Hub, The Dublin Docklands Development Authority, the Port Tunnel, the new signage system for orbital routes, the Ringsend Sewage Treatment Works, the Spire, and Standfast Dick." "The Encyclopaedia of Dublin is the standard reference work on the city. This revised and expanded edition will consolidate Douglas Bennett's reputation as the outstanding contemporary chronicler of the Irish capital."--BOOK JACKET.
