The library has acquired an interesting book titled When In Rome or Rio or Riyadh: Cultural Q&A's for Successful Business Behavior Around the World, by Gwyneth Olofsson (call# G156.5.B86O46 2004). If you plan on doing international travel as part of your job, or if you are preparing a class assignment on cultural differences, this book will be very useful. Topics covered include business cards, gift giving, meals/food, body language, attitudes towards time, and much, much more!
