About this product
Product Information
The definitive guide to understanding Korea - from home to work and those cultural destinations in between. Kohls shares a feast of Korean culture: a ricebowl of history and tradition complemented by an array of spicy tidbits that capture the reader's attention like a mouthful of kimchi. Based on personal experience, he provides critical incidents that explore the more puzzling aspects of Korean culture. Kohls explores Korean values - traditional values, value changes over the past forty years and projected values for the early decades of the twenty-first century. He is equally insightful when it comes to discussing the cultural patterns and practices of the workplace. He takes on management style, personal issues, networking and "pull" negotiating style, persistence, key Korean business relations and more. To a greater extent than most other Asian countries, Korea adheres to the traditional collectivist and Confucian traits of harmony, hierarchy, ingroups/outgroups, status, and proper behavior. According to Kohls, these traits plus the more Westernized values of the younger generations and the veneer of modern urban savvy surface in surprising combinations in personal and workplace relationships - often where they are least expected.

Robert Kohls' book is impressive in its depth of understanding of the ways in which cultural differences affect behavior, the ways we are not alike underneath.-- Horace H. Underwood, executive director, Korean American Educational Commission, Seoul

Questions:
Why has my version a different, older cover than the one shown in your website? And why does my version have only 424 pages instead of the expected 440 pages?
It would possibly appear that 16 pages of revisions may not be in my copy. Or maybe some other section or chapter??
