Morrison, a trainer for global business travelers, offers advice for those doing business in 13 countries. Each country chapter offers background information from a cultural anthropologist's
perspective, and gives tips on business practices, natural and human hazards, and protocol, covering areas such as greetings, punctuality, gifts, attire, and negotiating. An introduction
outlines the concepts of cognitive styles and value systems which are used in the cultural orientation sections of the country chapters. Appendices provide references on fashion, holidays,
equivalents, and international electrical adaptors, as well as contacts and resources. Annotation 穢2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
