Synopsis

Journalist Mandeep Rai embarks on a journey to 101 countries around the world to investigate the single, unique value that has defined each nation’s history, culture, and global influence—and how we can apply them to better our own lives.

Every day, whether we acknowledge it or not, we make decisions based on what we believe in. The choices, challenges, or opportunities facing us—and how we engage with them—reveal something important about our character, desires, and personality. When those values align in a single population, they have the power to define a nation, and teach the world valuable lessons about success.

In Values 101, journalist Mandeep Rai explores this concept by taking 101 distinct countries from around the world and identifying the single key value in each that has been carried throughout its history and culture, in the hopes that we may find a way to incorporate them into our own lives, from England’s “Steadfastness” and Armenia’s “Survival” to Morocco’s “Compromise” and the United States’s ability to “Pivot.” The result is an insightful and readable collection of profiles that opens our eyes to the world around us.
