The book Father of Our Nation: Collected Quotes of Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan was presented to Sheikh Nahyan bin Mubarak Al Nahyan, the Minister of Culture and Knowledge Development, in Abu Dhabi.
Published by Motivate with support from the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation, Father of Our Nation celebrates the thoughts and ideas at the heart of Sheikh Zayed's remarkable legacy. The first president of the UAE, Sheikh Zayed was a man who fought for unity, preached equality and transformed the UAE from separate sheikhdoms into one of the most developed countries in the region and the world. The Arabic and English language coffee-table book features rare historical and contemporary photographs and quotations that cover the themes of environment, heritage, education and progress, leadership, nation, values and women.
"This first-of-its-kind book is an important addition to the UAE's story, recording the extraordinary vision and wisdom of Sheikh Zayed for generations to come," said Ian Fairservice, Managing Partner and Group Editor-in-Chief of Motivate Media Group.
Father of Our Nation has been selected as book of the month at Abu Dhabi and Dubai airports, as well as Magrudy's, Relay, Borders, Carrefour, Kinokuniya, Jarir Bookstores, Jashanmal and Virgin Megastores.
Priced at Dh95, the book is available at all leading bookstores in the region, and on booksarabia.com.
