Diese Erfahrungen münden in Hinweise und Tipps für einen möglichst stressfreien Umgang mit schweizerischen Eigenarten und den hierzulande dominanten Wertestandards..."</p><p> <em>Swiss Inflight Magazine, </em>"<em>Beyond Chocolate</em>is an insightful guide to Switzerland and the Swiss for new arrivals to the country and all those who feel that they're insiders. With its discerning descriptions of the views, reactions and expectations of the Swiss and their non-Swiss colleagues, friends and neighbours, the book is a genuine help in avoiding misunderstandings and promoting reciprocal awareness and respect."</p><p> <em>Freundin Schweiz, </em>"Für In- und Ausländer ein Must. Ein witzig, aber seriös geschriebener Führer zum eidgenössischen Gesellschaftsleben, der garantiert Missverständnisse vermeiden hilft."</p><br>
