This guide also serves as a general introduction to Japanese culture, explaining in part what has made that nation a successful competitor of the United States and why Americans have trouble selling products and services there. Readers learn, for example, that the Japanese don't say ``no,'' for to do so would dispell the surface harmony that tradition demandsinstead they say ``it is very difficult'' or ``I'll think about it.'' Nonverbal communication is important in Japanese society, the author notes, and Westerners' discomfort and need to fill silence with conversation often works against true friendship, which is key to acquiring and maintaining business relationships in Japan. Throughout this solid study, Rowland, who lived in Japan six years and works now for a Japanese company in California, provides a wealth of information of interest to businesspeople and laypersons alike.

mass_market. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
