Publisher's Synopsis
Debbie Allen and James Silver have a strong belief that diversity is what makes life an interesting place to live. That being said, the writers have also noted the trend of intermingling of cultures, which continues to be an ever growing phenomenon. And as the world continues to enjoy more technological advances and freedoms it also becomes a smaller place - meeting and getting to know people around the world Is now as close as one's computer. Intercultural relationships are becoming increasingly common, and in spite of the differences in the partners, or perhaps because of them, these relationships are often long lasting and loving. Many result in lifelong partners and even marriage. As the couple learns about each other's cultures and customs they determine their own way to live life and where this journey will take them. They establish the values they will live by in order to build a happy and healthy relationship. Just like other couples, they find that the key to keeping their relationship strong is an open line of communication and the act of falling in love with each other over and over again. This book offers information that will serve as a guide for anyone interested in or involved in an intercultural relationship.
