"As this book is published, the truth is finally emerging about land-rezoning corruption in County Dublin, about politicians who betrayed the public's trust and took money from vested interests in exchange for their votes. What they did - as we now know from the sensational revelations at the Flood Tribunal - was to make a mess of planning in the county while they lined their own pockets." "Who is running Dublin - and who is making the running - is detailed in these pages, throwing the spotlight on architects, planners, politicians and property developers. All of the main sagas of recent years are featured, including Luas, the Port Tunnel, Temple Bar, Ballymun, Quarryvale and Spencer Dock."--BOOK JACKET.
