Synopsis

This book is for those non-Chinese who wanted to melt into Chinese society and didnt know how. They may be unable to find their positions in China where they can use their skills, may also feel emptiness, frustration, imbalance, a sense of injustice, and a loss of identity. The author believes it is possible to live happily in China, because the impact of the ability to communicate is greater than one can imagine. By introducing habits and customs of the society of China and details appearing constantly in Chinese peoples daily life, she will help foreigners understand China and Chinese people, learn effective ways to communicate in this society, and build confidence to live happily here.
