Book News Annotation:

This guide for expatriates and long-term visitors to the Czech Republic aims to cushion the impact of culture shock. Nollen--an American who lived in Prague for several years--provides some historical background before describing the country's social organization and family life. He also offers a thorough account of standard business practices. The rest of the book is concerned with practical matters of communicating, socializing, and experiencing Czech culture.
