Abstract:
CultureShock! USA is the essential guide for anyone who wants to live and work in the United States. Learn about the political and social divides in this vast land and how the various ethnic societies co-exist in harmony. Although each state has its own characteristics and quirks, the core values of independence, freedom, and equality are traits every American embraces unanimously. Pick up essential tips for everyday living-from interacting with locals, getting medical insurance to language, food, entertainment, and doing business. While some aspects of American culture can be enjoyed in other countries, the true American way of life can only be experienced first-hand at the source. CultureShock! USA has all the practical advice you will need to make your stay in the Land of Opportunity pleasant and successful.
