Cultural Adaptation: Made Easy by Benjamin Long

This first volume of a two-part series addresses head-on one of the most significant but underestimated issues in today’s highly integrated world: cultural differences. Benjamin Long describes the handing cultural differences as “like putting together a jigsaw puzzle without the benefit of the picture on the box.” He provides imaginative illustrations to help readers see what the completed picture might look like, and suggests for how to fit the next piece into the puzzle. His insightful chronicle, through the lens of American and Filipino culture in particular, explores the nuts and bolts of how cultures differ and why. Cultural Adaptation offers many simple ways of grasping a complex subject. Long draws on personal experience to showcase the cultural obstacles immigrants face, the adjustments they need to make, and the actions they need to take. The insights presented in this astonishing little book will open doors, hearts, and minds.
