E-book Title: Cultural Rehydration: A Laymen's Guide to Dealing with Culture Shock
Author: Dr. Gerald W. Anthony
Book Description: If you are dehydrated, which is more important, to get out of the sun or to consume liquids? Much like the answer to this question, when faced with culture shock individuals are taught to choose between the two choices of, 'their way' or 'my way.' If one tries to confront dehydration or culture shock by choosing only one answer, that individual will be unsuccessful. Cultural Rehydration: A Laymen's Guide to Dealing with Culture Shock is the first self-help book and workbook that combines a description of the subtle mercilessness of culture shock with a powerfully built, self-administrating treatment process.
Written for a global expatriate community of all ages in the genre of self-help and cultural/social issues, Cultural Rehydration: A Laymen's Guide to Dealing with Culture Shock is a self-help book that is set in the universal language of English. This easily portable self-help package includes five chapters that can help restore any expatriate to points of functionality. Chapter 1 explains the uniqueness of being an expatriate and clarifies the culture shock cycle from a psychological point of view using laymen's terms. Next, Chapter 2 compares curing culture shock to curing the common, but deadly bodily malfunction of dehydration. The rest of this health kit is devoted to re-establishing yourself from culture shock during three unique stages: (1) before-departure, (2) in country, and (3) after returning home. Like most self-help books, Cultural Rehydration: A Laymen's Guide to Dealing with Culture Shock uses simple language to reduce a towering, complex mountain to a minuscule, manageable molehill. Yet this self-help package stands alone in two important ways. First, it is the only self-help package on culture shock that gives both application exercises to use instantaneously and a cognitive plus behavioral explanation to help individuals understand why they are feeling uneasy. Secondly, it uses applications that have been used and tested by a professional therapist on individuals who were in the eye of the culture shock storm.
Besides being an expat myself for over seven years, my PhD in Counseling with an emphasis in cultural counseling, gives me unique insight to this topic. I wish to continue my cultural publications with this combined 18,000 word, 100 page, self-help book and workbook to bring a method of processing to expatriates globally. More... | |
