Vietnam Business and People: understanding cultural differences

By: Alfredo de la Casa

With this book, and using my experience in settling in Viet Nam, I try to help future expats or even tourists to make the most out of Viet Nam, with minimum difficulties to achieve their objectives, this being to communicate with a pharmacist or the lucky money protocol in Tet. I am also including a lot of information on cultural differences, as problems can easily be reached without knowing due to some drastic cultural differences between Vietnamese ways and Western ways. I have divided the book in small chapters so that it is easy to find various subjects. The book can be read in any order as each chapter is independent. I hope you find it helpful and enjoy reading it!

Restaurants: How to Eat Well in London at Low Prices

By: Alfredo de la Casa

In this book I am presenting my favourite 99 restaurants around London. I love eating, I love eating good food even more, and if I have to pay little for it and a good service is provided, that is what I call perfection.It is not very difficult to find a good restaurant serving good food if you are willing to pay £70 or more per person. This book is not about that type of eateries, but the opposite: after having lived for 13 years in London I have tried many restaurants, some good some not so good, here I have collated those I think you should try, with a special mention to my top 10 favourites.

Spirit Possession in Buddhist Southeast Asia

Worlds Ever More Enchanted

By: Bénédicte Brac de la Perrière ,Peter A. Jackson

In dramatic contrast to the reported growing influence of doctrinal and fundamentalist forms of religion in some parts of Southeast Asia, the predominantly Buddhist societies of the region are witnessing an upsurge of spirit possession cults and diverse forms of magical ritual. This is found in many social strata, including the urban poor, rising middle classes and elite groups, and across the different political systems of Myanmar, Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam. This volume reveals both the central historical place of spirit possession rituals in the Buddhist cultures of mainland Southeast Asia and their important contemporary roles to enhance prosperity and protection. This book examines the increasing prominence of spirit mediumship and divination across the region by exploring the interplay of neoliberal capitalism, visual media, the network cultures of the Internet, and the politics of cultural heritage and identity. It advances beyond critiques of the “secularization” and “disenchantment” theses to explore the processes of modernity that are actively producing magical worldviews and stimulating the rise of spirit cults. As such, it not only challenges the assumptions of modernization theory but demonstrates that the cults in question are novel ritual forms that emerge out of inherently modern conditions.

Handbook of Biblical Hebrew

An Inductive Approach Based on the Hebrew Text of Esther

By: William Sanford LaSor,William Sanford La Sor

This is a print on demand book and is therefore non- returnable. The Handbook, designed as a complete tool for the student of Biblical Hebrew, is the result of over twenty- five years of teaching the language. While it is primarily intended for use in Hebrew courses, it is also an excellent tool for a refresher course or useful as a basic grammatical reference work to aid the exegete. Similar in format to the author's Handbook of New Testament Greek, it combines reading lessons (vol. 1) with grammar, paradigms, and basic vocabulary (vol. 2). William LaSor uses the inductive method, studying directly from the text, rather than the conventional method of language study in which beginning students learn the rules of grammar and syntax and memorize vocabulary, often without reading the actual text. Instead of memorizing numerous forms that will never be encountered in actual reading, the student learns only what he or she encounters. The lessons are based on the Hebrew text of Esther, chosen because it presents little difficulty in theological or textual matters and has an excellent vocabulary. LaSor has included readings from other portions of the Bible, such as several chapters from Genesis, to introduce the student to Hebrew other than that found in Esther. The diligent student of this method will learn not only the elements of Hebrew but also how to inductively study the language and how to learn by induction what the Hebrew text says.
