Culture′s Consequences: International Differences in Work-Related Values (Cross Cultural Research and Methodology)

Classic study on culture. This is a must read for people study social sciences. Geert Hofstede is a great place to start when you begin your study. His insight on the dimensions of culture are extremely useful when you build your foundation for a new theory.

Great material to read. Deep & simple. I love it.

cool

This is a good book, even though it is dated.............. I recommend this book.......Good Material for the Traveling Business Person

If you need to learn about various cultures for different countries, this book is THE source. Hofstede's groundbreaking work is internationally recognized. Although the study was done in the late 1960's - early 1970's, the information is still relevant and interesting. For anyone who has to spend time in another country, they would be doing themselves a favor by getting a hold of this book. The only problem with this book is that it is not one of the easiest reads I've ever seen by far. To his credit however, he provides lots of tables and charts for the person who typically scans material. A must have for expatriates or those seeking an MBA.
