Summary:

Only a few decades ago, Dubai was a tranquil Bedouin city - now, its skyline is dominated by immense edifices which rise from the desert, monuments to the city's extreme wealth. This book explores the rich and innovative architectural culture which has emerged with Dubai's new-found status as a global centre.
