"Coping with Germany" is a mine of information for the tourist, the business traveller and the short-term visitor, on travel, accommodation, food, drink, shopping, money, social and business etiquette and possible problems of communication. The book sets the practical advice against a background of German history, economic development and certain key social matters - all filtered through the author's long experience of living in the country. He probes behind the typical view of the German people to reveal the reason for their orderliness and drive for achievement. In short, not just a guide book, but a companion to help the visitor cope with Germany, whether tourists, business travellers, or those going to (or anticipating) working in Germany.
