Middle East 101
For a large number of people, the Middle East has become more than just a place for shopping and ascending the Burj Khalifa. Expats are coming to live and work here. Yet all these people encounter a new culture and sometimes find themselves at a loss. Cultural competence allows us to understand other people on the level of motives, values, and conventions. Most importantly, it helps us expand our own horizons. If we all had a slightly better understanding of other nations and cultures, the world would see fewer wars. Middle East 101 provides a comprehensive guide to successfully navigate culture, traditions, psychology, and business practices within this diverse region. Because the more you know about Islam and the Middle East, the less likely you will fall into the traps of conspiratorial thinking, become a victim of cognitive biases, and explain what is happening around you using clich矇s. Success in the region can only be achieved with emotional intelligence and cultural competence. Gaining trust in the Middle East is possible only if you communicate with complete sincerity, showing respect for the local religion, culture, and interlocutor.

How Did Janice and I Survive and Thrive for Seven Years in the World's Hottest Capital? In 1989, linguist Leoma Gilley and her colleague Janice moved to Khartoum - the world's hottest capital - to improve the Shilluk writing system.

This language issue contributed to a 21-year civil war, driving many Shilluks to seek refuge in Khartoum, Sudan's capital. Moving on from her first adventure in Launching into the Unknown, Leoma continues her journey in Sudan's capital, where each day brings a new challenge or celebration, including: Bureaucratic red tape Successful workshops Cultural misunderstandings Enjoying unexpected friendships over plates of fuul Swirling dust storms Finding humor in the challenge of keeping electronics sand-free Blistering heat Will they convince the Shilluk people to embrace a new spelling system? Can they overcome government restrictions to continue their vital work? Join Leoma on this captivating journey as she discovers that home truly is a state of mind, even when life feels like a tumble dryer. Her story is a testament to the indomitable human spirit and the power of language to bridge divides.

It's glorious." The Bookbag review of Tokyo Traffic.BookLife Review wrote that Pronko's sixth novel, Shitamachi Scam, "does as good a job of taking us on a trip through Tokyo as Simenon does through Inspector Maigret's Paris."
