Reseña del editor:

From the ''Character'' section of the eagerly awaited Xenophobe''s Guide to the Irish: ''The Irish,'' claimed Sigmund Freud ''are the only race who cannot be helped by psychoanalysis''. The general implication is that Irish people are a mass of contradictions, and impervious to the rational thought processes that might resolve them.

Contraportada:

'There's no use denying it, Irish people talk a lot. They don't know why. It just seems to pour out of them. Maybe it’s something to do with living on a lonely mist-covered island on the western fringe of Europe. Whatever the reason, they just can't abide silence. It’s a vacuum that must be filled.
Apart from the sheer volume of words they produce, they are also noted for the eloquence of their speech. The colorful phrases just comes to them naturally, like whiskers to a goat.'

Xenophobia - an irrational fear of foreigners, probably justified, always understandable.

Xenophobe's Guides - an irreverent look at the beliefs and foibles of nations, almost guaranteed to cure Xenophobia.

Xenophobe's Motto – Forewarned is forearmed.
