In today’s high-stakes, highly charged international business world, you simply can’t afford a misunderstood gesture, an ill-placed word, or a misinformed judgment. The Global Etiquette Guide to Asia shows both business and leisure travelers how to understand, appreciate, and manage–as well as maximize the benefits of–the myriad cultural differences that can exist between you and your Asian business hosts.

Just as customs vary greatly between Asia and the West, so do they vary among the diverse nations of Asia. What is proper and expected in Malaysia, for example, may be a deal-breaker in India.

Each easy-to-navigate reference book is filled with helpful hints, do’s and don’ts, and other rules of the road for travelers of all types.
