Negative Positive
Title: Interesting
Review: Living for nearly 70 years in Germany as a native born German I don't agree with the negative reviews on this book. I read it with pleasure and found everything almost correct, maybe some smaller items and details could be corrected or updated. Lord gives a short and accurate summary of living in Germany. It is obvious that "each coin has two sides" as we say in Germany - and telling the negative (seeming) facts warning the visitor not to overrate his first impressions surely does not mean that Lord feels any bitterness towards my country.More Germans should read this book - they would become conscious of their behaviour that might seem strange to foreigners and could try to make them more comfortable.I am only sorry that Lord compares only very seldom German habits with US habits. Urgently I should now read another book: Cultureshock USA!
Is the review positive or negative?
