Rezensionen

'I believe that a book of this quality will be enjoyed by the broadest layers of the reading public, from connoisseurs to the general readership. Younger readers as well as older ones, traditionalists, and liberals will equally appreciate the author's skill and readiness to recognize and analyze a problem that is more relevant today than ever.'

'The book is written in a light, conversational style, an easy read. Cultural chauvinism is perennial and omnipresent and the book roams wide... An eyeopener to see 'western values' through the lens of non-westerners...'
