Summary of Vietnam Today: A Guide To A Nation At A Crossroads
Here is a first look at Vietnam in the twenty-first century, a nation undergoing rapid change and opening up to the world. "Vietnam Today" reveals the most prominent characteristics of the Vietnamese: their energy and drive, the dominance of group over individual and the paramount importance of maintaining harmony. In doing so, Mark Ashwill and his Vietnamese contributor shed light on many sources of misunderstanding between Vietnamese and Western professionals. But for those who are prepared to take the time to get to know the people, to move at their pace, and to learn about their culture and history, Vietnam can be a land of promise and opportunity.Asia Books
