Crossing Cultures with Grace and Humor

Which culture is the “best?” Which group has life figured out, and which is still evolving? Who has it right, and why doesn’t everyone else follow suit? Without understanding and appreciating cultural differences, we might have preconceptions about the answers to these questions, when there really is no right answer. Syed Zafar and Joyce Sauter explore such preconceptions in a series of articles on cultural awareness, diversity, and differences that shape our world and our interactions with others. By taking a closer look at the varying cultures of the world, they open readers’ eyes to the differences that make us unique and steps we can take to recognize, appreciate, and accept the cultures we come across.
