Excellent book for expats. I am currently working in a international school and found the material relevant in my setting as well as helpful. The author gives ample illustrations to help the reader understand the subtle differences in each of our cultures. An easy and enjoyable read. Well done!

Cultural intelligence is an excellent primer for students, business people, or those simply interested in other cultures. It provides an excellent introduction to interacting with foreign cultures and gives some great tips on how to do so successfully. It's written in simple, easy-to-follow language and is a quick read.

Timely delivery and in perfect condition.

Too broad a topic...
~ Written on Jul 31, 2006. 1 out of 11 users found this review helpful.

The discussion was so broad that it was almost irrelevant. It is not Peterson's fault though. Any discussion about every culture in the world is necessarily broad, but I think I would have gotten more out of the book if it focused on a specific area of the world.
