Hi All,

I’m looking to read up on all matters relating to Irish planning corruption (eg Liam Lawlor, Ray Burke etc etc), as I don’t fully understand what exactly happened/is happening from media reports.Has anyone written a book on the subject that’s straightforward enough for Joe Soaps to understand? If yes, can you send me details (and possibly a short review if you have read it)?

(Please note, I’m not looking for Tribunal texts)

Thanks in Advance

Chaos at The Crossroads by Frank McDonald and James Nix. it's mostly about bad planning but a lot of bad planning is a result of corruption.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Chaos-at-Crossroads-Frank-Mcdonald/dp/0948037148/ref=sr_1_2/203-6253578-3935901?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1180620717&sr=1-2

You'll only be depressed reading it though.
