Culture Smart! China explains how to avoid cultural gaffes in the host country. Giving historical, political and cultural backgrounds, the guide reveals how to read body language, be aware of potential pitfalls in communication, and provide the cultural essentials travellers need to successfully develop relations in China.
Culture Smart! provides priceless nuggets of cultural information on China not found in a standard guidebook. Whether you are looking to secure a business deal, enrich your travels, or simply better understand China, its people and customs, Culture Smart! provides the information in a clear and highly readable guide. Rather than get bogged down with where to stay, where to eat, and where to go; provide yourself with the knowledge of what makes the country tick and experience China as a local. Culture Smart! provides rare insights, and practical guidance, into cultures. The values, behaviour and customs of peoples have been formed over centuries which is why the unique information in Culture Smart! guides do not date in the same way as ordinary travel guides. Culture Smart! enables you to step into a world untouched by other guidebooks.
