Geology of Ireland Books
In reply to Sweeney, the Geological Survey of Ireland (and the Survey in Northern Ireland) produced a series of booklets on Landscapes from Stone. These mainly cover the northern part of the island, but there are also publications on the Burren and the Copper Coast. see http://www.gsi.ie/Publications+and+Data/General+Interest/ for more details. The GIS has a more detailed book on the geology of Ireland written for schools (see Schools in the same website). There is also a non-technical book written by Peadar McArdle entitled Rock Around Ireland A Guide to Irish Geology.
