Good book from a compay standpoint. 
Excellent and Well Researched. The book is a very good at listing why to do business in Dubai and how to go about it from the standpoint of a Large Multi National Company. Personally though I was looking for more of a guide to working in Dubai on an individual basis as either a company owner or employee. The book however was full of information, it almost requires a reread to absorb it all.

With so much attention on China and India, the Gulf has been overlooked. Meanwhile, business is booming in Dubai and other countries in the Gulf.

For a level-headed introduction to the business world in the Gulf, Rehman's book is pretty much alone in its field.

Good but sometimes sounds like marketing fluff 
I am fairly impressed with the book. While it does include good information clarifying The different areas of the Middle East and how each differs from the others, all too often it sounds like marketing fluff. Issues such as terrorism and human rights violations, though acknowledged, are often countered with reminders of how large a consumer base is just waiting for international companies.
