Customer Reviews

The Text is Excellent.
I have taught with several of the major readers on the market: Samovar and Porter's, Nakayama and Martin, and others. This text has the most well written readings and contains articles on many seminal issues, context (Hall), time (Hall), etc. This text has the LEAST blatantly fluff filled articles intended only to titillate and pander to students. Additionally, if you review some of the other texts, you will see that they often have poorly referenced articles and the work is less than scholarly. It is possible to write a chapter for a reader such as this and support your content with support and references. The articles here are interesting, well written, well referenced, and more-grounded in theory and research than a lot of the competition. I recommend it highly. MLK

Great book
I teach cultural classes and found this edition really helpful for my students. It's very practical and easy to read for undergrads. The book helps them to understand the abstract cultural concepts. This book goes well along with "Understanding the global cultures" by Gannon.

Did not recieve the book I ordered
I was very disappointed about the purchase I made on Amazon.com. The book I had ordered was intercultural communication and the book I had recieved was Essentials of marketing research. I also shot an email of the situation to the one that sold the book and I got no response. So thanks to everyone for wasting my money in these hard times. Most of us are just getting by.
