Reviews

'The contributors capture precisely that which is different about heritage in the UAE. It is not about the past; it is about the present and the future. Emirati heritage is being created now and those of us working in the UAE appreciate just how dynamic and often politically charged the process of creation can be. 'Jane Bristol-Rhys, Zayed University, UAE
