Jim Krane traces Dubai’s rise from a small Gulf settlement into a global center of trade, finance, tourism, property, and spectacle. He examines the Maktoum rulers, British influence, oil wealth, foreign investment, migrant labor, ambitious construction, and the city’s exposure to economic crisis. The book combines political and economic history with on-the-ground reporting, showing both the ingenuity behind Dubai’s growth and the social, environmental, and financial costs hidden beneath its polished image.
