Product Description
The Global Etiquette Guide to Asia (9780471369493): Dean Foster: Books. When in Rome, do as the Romans do, or for that matter, when in Turkmenistan do as the Turkmenistans do. The premise of this new series of books by the managing director of Berlitz International is to familiarize the traveler with the various customs of the countries of the world. The books are a fountain of information on dining, business, public behavior, communication, and more. Some important facts to remember: Do not smile in public in Romania or the locals will think you odd. When in Thailand, do not gesture much with your hands or you may find yourself the source of laughter. And be careful in Bulgaria to say quite clearly yes or no because to shake your head from side to side means yes. Those planning a lengthy stay in a foreign country should familiarize themselves with the information in these books. A useful addition to the travel guide genre in all public and academic libraries.DSandra Knowles, Henderson Cty. P.L., NC Copyright 2000 Reed Business Information, Inc.
