Nepal - Culture Smart!: The Essential Guide to Customs & Culture, Paperback/Tessa Feller

Nestling in the foothills of the Himalayas, Nepal is a land of contrasts and incongruities--not least in the variety of its cultural, ethnic, and religious weave. Hindu and Buddhist values predominate and help to maintain social harmony despite the divisions between rich and poor, urban and rural, highlands and lowlands. Culture Smart Nepal sets out to explain the complexities of Nepalese life, from home, to business, and the marketplace.
