Author and analyst Matthew Hedges is this week's podcast guest as he joins Arab Digest editor William Law to discuss his recently published book, an analysis of how Mohammed bin Zayed, the crown prince of Abu Dhabi, has assiduously built a military, digital and economic power base while remaining largely in the shadows. Matthew talks, too, about his detention and abuse at the hands of the UAE's State Security Department while he was in the country doing research for the book.
