Even though instant communications and strides in transportation
have made it easier for individuals to travel and communicate, the
great divide across global cultures continues. Nowhere is this more
evident than between the cultures of China in the East and the
United States in the West.
With China's elevation to global superpower status, it is vital
for Americans to improve their understanding of the principles that
are core to the way our friends and counterparts in China think and
act. In "Confucius Says ... There Are No Fortune Cookies in China,"
authors Edward V. Yang, Kate Ou, and Dennis Smith discuss the
customs, history, and business practices in China, with an eye
toward enhancing relationships through a better understanding of
the culture of the East through American eyes.
Yang, Ou, and Smith translate more than one hundred combined
years of real-world living and working experience in China and
across Asia into practical, everyday lessons intended for anyone
wishing to build better business and personal relationships in
China. This guide contains one hundred lessons, including common
sayings, proverbs, idioms, quotes from ancient Chinese
philosophers, and the authors' own experiences.
Yang shares fundamental lessons derived from his personal
experience-knowledge gained through his upbringing, through his
traditional Chinese and US education, through his work experience
in Asia and the United States, and, most importantly, through his
mistakes.
