| How
much beer does the average German drink? What is the speed
limit on the autobahn? Who were the original Vandals?
Teach Yourself World Cultures: Germany answers
these questions, and many more, in a concise and lively
overview of Germany: the country, its languages, its people,
their way of life and culture and what makes them tick.
If you are studying for examinations
which require a knowledge of the background of Germany
and its civilisation, or if you are learning the language,
in, for example, an evening class and want to know more
about the country and how it works, this is the book
for you. If your job involves travel and business relations,
it will provide valuable and practical information about
the ways and customs of the people you are working with.
Or if you simply have an interest in Germany for whatever
reason, it will broaden your knowledge about the country
and its inhabitants.
