Wed March 10, 2010"Taiwan A to Z: The Essential Cultural Guide" by Amy C. Liu—Essential for Newcomers, Informative for Old Timers!!
Whether you want to learn more about Taiwan culture personally or help your friends or newly arrived colleagues this is the book that people have been requesting for years.
It gives fascinating insight into the traditions, cultures, peoples, festivals, food and etiquette surrounding everyday life on this very special island.
Taiwan A to Z is a product of the author’s re-discovery of her own roots. Written by Amy C. Liu, a Taiwanese who has lived in the United States since the age of 13, Japan and Taiwan and has traveled to over 30 countries, Amy has a deep understanding of both Western and Eastern cultures. Amy knows where the foreigners come from, what foreigners most need to know and most want to know about this unique island of Taiwan.
In this book, Amy leads us on a thorough journey of her homeland, Taiwan; she provides true insights into the intricacies of Taiwanese culture; she carefully points out the importance of ‘guanxi’, ‘face’, hierarchy for those in professional positions as well as giving all the clues you need to attend Taiwanese events like wedding.
This exceptional book is not only for foreigners living and working in Taiwan, it is also a must read for teachers, tour guides, cross cultural couples, or indeed anyone who has an interest on Taiwan. And it would make a great gift for visitors or for the folks back home!
