Editorial Reviews

Product Description

This book explores Dubai’s history from its beginnings as a small fishing village to its place on the world stage today, using historical narratives, travel descriptions, novels and fictional accounts by local writers to bring colour to the history of the city’s urban development. With case studies and surveys the author explores the economic and political forces driving Dubai’s urban growth, its changing urbanity and its place within the global city network.
