LIVING IN THE U.S.A. is a fast - paced, readable survey of what Americans are like and how they conduct their lives. Alison Lanier, an experienced cross - cultural specialist, looks at both the nitty gritty processes with which someone living or working in the United States must deal and the more subtle social and cultural facts which affect the foreigner. Here is a lively, indispensible guide and compendium of customs, courtesies, and caveats giving practical advice on almost anything that might occur during a sojourn in the U.S.
Ms. Lanier brings to the book long experience in the conduct of briefings for foreign managers and professionals coming to work in the U.S.
