{"product_id":"hungary-culture-smart-volume-eddy-kester-9781857338683","title":"Hungary - Culture Smart!: The Essential Guide to Customs \u0026 Culture","description":"A landlocked country in the heart of Europe, Hungary was a powerful medieval kingdom. Intimately involved in European history and culture, the Hungarians have always been proud of their distinctive identity, reinforced by the fact that their language bears no resemblance to that of any of their neighbors. Today, following the collapse of Communism, Hungarians feel part of Central Europe again, the Europe of science, culture, and civic virtue, of gem-like Baroque churches and 19th century schools, town halls, barracks, and railway stations. This beautiful and beguiling land is home to the magnificent city of Budapest on the banks of the Danube, to the largest lake in central Europe, and to charming spa towns and hot springs. Hungarian openness and hospitality have been tested by the migrant crisis on Europe's doorstep, and the rise of populist parties. After setting the context in a brief historical overview, \u003ci\u003eCulture Smart  Hungary\u003c\/i\u003e offers practical advice and important insights into different aspects of Hungarian life today, to help deepen your understanding and appreciation of this complex and talented people.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Eddy Kester, Brian McLean, Culture Smart!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1857338685\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781857338683\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Kuperard\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/04\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 168\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.60h x 4.40w x 0.60d","brand":"Eddy Kester","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43984424239359,"sku":"9781857338683","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f002e28c-1672-48e3-a4fc-750da9275972.jpg?v=1683272234","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/hungary-culture-smart-volume-eddy-kester-9781857338683","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
