Förlagets beskrivning
"Turning Bricks into Jade" is an idiomatic translation of the Chinese
proverb "throw bricks, attract jade". The authors like to think of each
critical incident as a brick, which, when combined with other similar bricks -
good sense and effort - can be used to build relationships more valuable than
jade. The critical incidents are stories about cross-cultural conflict or
misunderstanding, based on actual events. Readers choose one of the four or
five possible alternatives that explain the misunderstanding. Following each
incident is a discussion of potential solutions, and many incidents have more
than one "correct" explanation. Understanding the possibilities can help people
facing the prospect of working or staying in China understand what they will
encounter. "Turning Bricks into Jade" is an idiomatic translation of the Chinese
proverb "throw bricks, attract jade". This work is based on a series of
"critical incidents" and provides explanations and possible solutions for the
problems people will face when working or staying in China.
