This book "Beyond culture" is a proud celebration of human capacities. For too long, people have taken their own ways of life for granted, ignoring the vast, international cultural community that surrounds them. In a strong culture, the abstract principles (values) are translated very directly into people's day-to-day lives. The military, for example, has a definite set of values and a very strong culture. Humankind must now embark on the difficult journey beyond culture, to the discovery of a lost self and a sense of perspective. Certainly, anyone interested in cross-cultural communications would benefit from this book.
