Dubai: Dissecting a dream


Dubai Dreams Author: Raymond Barrett Publisher: Nicholas Brealey Publishing, 232 pages

It is home to the world’s tallest building, the Burj Khalifa; the largest man-made island, the World Islands; and the biggest shopping mall, the dubai Mall. It is a city of extremes: at one end boasting luxury hotels and mansions, and the other filled with immigrant labour camps. Beyond the glitz and glitter, what are the real stories the city has to tell?
