Wednesday 9th May 2007 - Motivate Publishing announces the launch of its latest book Dubai - An Aerial Tour.
A fascinating, photographic expedition across the emirate, Dubai - An Aerial Tour features 78 stunning aerial pictures shot in and around the emirate; from the bustling souks of Bur Dubai, to the dynamic skyline of Sheikh Zayed Road, and the serenity of the Dubai desert.
Accompanied by informative captions in five languages (Arabic, English, French, German, and Russian) the book will undoubtedly appeal to both residents and visitors to the region.
"Flying in or out of Dubai, you only ever get to see a small part of its spectacular landscape. Now with Dubai - An Aerial Tour, you get to set your own pace, and observe it all from the comfort of your armchair. It's a new way of looking at the emirate and highlights its remarkable growth." said Jonathan Griffiths, General Manager - Books, Motivate Publishing.
"Dirk Laubner's photographs give us an unusual perspective of Dubai. We have been very lucky to have worked with such a world-renowned photographer on his very first Arabian assignment," he added.
Dubai - An Aerial Tour contains 144 pages, is priced at AED 125, and is available for purchase from Motivate Publishing's corporate gifts department, or online store www.booksarabia.com. The book is also available at all leading bookshops.
