About This Item
Kathy Cuddihy, 1997. Soft cover. Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. 19.6 x 13.7 x 0.8 cm-Other than gift inscription on flypage a clean and unmarked copy." This is an enjoyable quick-read, medium-large print font, medium-size paperback of 135 wide-margin pages. Its 16 chapters include: hospitality (greetings, the coffee ritual, invitations, eating, smoking), incense, health and beauty (miswak, perfume, henna, kohl), dress (men & women), social conventions (forms of address, friendship, expats, saving face, gifts, gestures, language, numbers, photography), bargaining, doing business (introductions, courtesies, business attitudes), family (children, women), courtship & marriage, divorce, death, Islam, law (pitfalls, visa documents), government, the Muslim year, dos & donts, and a glossary. The "bargaining" section is 4 pages long, and "doing business" only 9 -- so don't expect to learn about Saudi's business codes here in setting up an import/export firm. Essentially, this is between a pamphlet and a booklet. Some tidits that the author picked up during her living there. VERY useful if you have no idea of Arab customs and plan on visiting the Kingdom. Better than most similar booklets.
