Going abroad?.... This book may be of help. Expatology deals with all the different social and cultural elements of life overseas, with a special focus on cross-cultural adaptation. Often overlooked, the cultural dimension is however very important, and the key to your success overseas. Listing all the necessary preparations before traveling, this book not only gives you a framework for understanding local culture, but also goes into such questions as whether or not to take your partner and children along (and avoid the expat-wife syndrome), how to stay motivated, how to get rest and relaxation, how to stay healthy (this includes information on malaria) and overseas money matters. Expatology is a complete guide for the expat experience. It is specifically geared towards expatriates living in non-western cultures in Africa. It is useful for all kinds of people, be they development workers, doctors, nurses, journalists, scientists or gold miners. To avoid feeling like a fish out of the water, you might consider buying this book!
