“Culturgrams are briefings to aid understanding of, feeling for, and communication with other people.” They succeed admirably.
Each Culturgram contains much of the sort of information usually left out of guidebooks: how to act when invited into someone’s home, how to avoid being unintentionally obnoxious or frightening.
The price is right: $1.25 postpaid, for each four-page,
8 x 11 inch pamphlet. There are currently 90 Culturgrams
available. Other publications to encourage international communications are also available.
