Description: Dutch society's behavioral eccentricities are unveiled in this insider's guide to Holland and its people. For business people and sightseers making a long or brief visit to Holland, Dutch society might be difficult to navigate without this examination of egalitarianism and utilitarianism, organization and trade, and honor and privacy. This eye-opening guide offers insight into why drugs may be sold without repercussion at the corner store while unsanctioned fences in one's garden beget condemnation, revealing the true old Dutch adage "Act normally, that's crazy enough!"
