Publisher's Synopsis

Your world is getting smaller and the people around you are becoming more diverse. Meeting people from other cultures in the work place, school, the store and even in your own neighbourhood is almost unavoidable. Perhaps you are planning to travel or live in a different culture? The differences (or the reasons for those differences) are not always as obvious as you might think. If you took a little bit of time, could it be that those differences would begin to make sense to you - and maybe you could benefit from a different perspective? This book is a guide into that kind of understanding, exposing your thinking to other ways of looking at:

- worldviews

- views of self

- communication styles

- time

- authority

- social standards

- spirituality... and more!

Do you feel you are smart enough, but still get lost in academic discussions about culture? Then this book is for you. Somewhere between a textbook and casual bathroom reading, The World Across the Street will help you see people from other cultures in a new light.
