Through its analysis of national identity in the UAE, this book presents a systematic framework to enable Emiratis to fully appreciate the profound significance of the phrase ‘Eyal Zayed’ (Children of Zayed), which emanates from their deep-rooted identity.

The principles and values of this identity can be traced back to Sheikh Zayed (may God rest his soul in peace), through his characteristics, principles and thought.

The book offers Emiratis a deep appreciation of the leadership’s reverence for the phrase ‘Eyal Zayedʼ, and their eagerness to adopt its meaning–in the right place, at the right time and for the right purpose.
